You're right, I noticed my extractor face is a bit rough, but definitely angled properly for single loading.

If I put the round in the chamber and try to close the bolt, it won't close. If I tilt the gun back and let the bolt push it into battery, it snaps over the rim most of the time.

I may try that polishing procedure you mentioned. Typical CZ, needs a bit of tweaking!

UPDATE: I polished the face of the extractor claw (which was quite rough) and it single feeds like a champ now!
