NOTE: By recycling the bolt backwards and forwards, loaded rounds
should enter into the chamber in a controlled manner. In other words, the
rim of the cartridge case should slide up into the bolt face as the bolt is
moved forward and cartridges picked up out of the magazine. The cartridge
will then feed into the chamber. The bullet should not touch any part of the
mechanism as it is feeding into the chamber.
