[QUOTE="RickN, post: 3803530, member: 8854"] The problem kind of is the mags, or a should say the mags and certain ammo. The Promags worked ok with standard 55 grain 5.56 ammo, but I had failures to feed, eject and even fire with some FC 223 55gr ballistic tip. I got to looking closely and the rounds are a bit to long and drag on the inside of the magazine. While the outside dimensions of the plastic mags are correct, the inside is just a hair smaller due to the thickness of the walls. This causes the nose of the bullet to point down a bit preventing it from feeding correctly. Something tells me using ammo with slightly shorter bullets will solve most of my problems. I am hoping to get out to the gun club early part of next week when it is cooler and do some more testing with various ammo. [/QUOTE]
