Have a Pardini .22 Sp bought new back in 1994. Had a new barrel machined... Pardini doesn't make replacement barrels for this model any longer. The extractor hits the groove in the barrel just before the bolt is fully closed? The Extractor rises up coming away from the rim on the .22 case. On the original Pardini barrel it doesn't do this. I also have had many light hits, now in Timed fire I am getting stove pipes ( where the fired round sticks out of the bolt area at a 90 degrree angle. The extractor hitting the cuut groove my machinist says this needs to happen or it creats or problems? (not sure what?) Does anyone else have a Pardini that when you close the bolt, the extractor hits the groove in the barrel because the length is short?

Yes, my extractor also hits the cut groove in the receiver, that's normal.

If you are getting stove pipes, check to see if your firing pin is broken. The only time I've seen stove pipes in my Pardini, or anyone's Pardini, is when the firing pin is broken, and the new round is unable to seat fully before the bolt slams nearly shut. Open the gun, pull at the firing pin with some tweezers, and see if it comes out.

Even with a broken firing pin, you can shoot quite normally, but on occasion, you will get the stove pipe.

Stove piping on my Pardini new was fixed with a new extractor and extractor spring.
