Yes, the action bar trips the feed latch. Is it moving, and if not, is the problem with the the latch or the bar?

Everything is the same between the 3" guns and the 2-3/4" ones, except the barrels and action sleeves. The Magnum sleeve is heavier, but the same length. The bolt should not hit the back of the receiver. Sounds to me like maybe the link is not in the grooves and/or action spring follower properly, or is broken.

The finger on the feed latch that engages the action bar could be broken off. Seen that before.
