Message: <blockquote data-quote="wylekyote" data-source="post: 3850202" data-attributes="member: 4455">I contacted Hornady CS and sent them the pic, this was their reply:“Nick, In some cases with the Sub-Sonic loadings we have to use inert powders as case fillers to keep the powder uniform and allow it to ignite correctly. If you are running a suppressor on the firearm this will sometimes be much worse that not due to the back pressure. Thanks”I replied that I’m not running a suppressor, and that I’ve put some nasty Russian steel cased ammo through my other AR’s (granted, they’re 5.56…) that ran significantly cleaner. Also asked, “If this is match grade ammo, shouldn’t I be able to put a few hundred rounds through my gun without it absolutely requiring a cleaning to continue to function?”That first reply really wasn’t satisfactory at all. I’m dealing with Hornady here, not Wolf, I would expect better CS than just making excuses for a product. I thought Hornady was usually the safe and reliable choice, but doesn’t sound like they’re even going to take my complaint seriously.</blockquote>
