View Full Version : 300 BLK 30 round mag test.

Many people are having trouble running more that 5 rounds in a mag using the big 145 Grain cast bullet. This is one of those cheap no-name mags with the orange follower.

I hand a failure to feed on the second round (the bolt locked back for some reason) and a real failure to feed on the last round. The last round really supprised me because this load has been very consistant when I was testing with just 3 rounds in the mag.

Any how, here is the vid, some rounds I shot into the dirt just in front of the backstop.

Well, did you get the kinks worked out? Wasn't this in another thread too? Thought I replied to this already.... or is CRS setting in?

I still have problems with the first round about half the time if loaded with 30 rounds. Down loaded to 28 it's 100%. I've never had another problem on the last round since the vid. It was very strange I had that last round problem. I've also just received 12 Orlite mags that I'm in the process of modifying to work in the newer AR mag wells.

It may be CRS, I did a short vid right after completeing this project that I only shot 2 or 3 rounds in. This was the first vid I did of the big cast boolit with 30 rounds in the mag. I did post it at silencertalk but I don't think you wander over there.

O.S.O.K.

No, I don't haunt that board.... and I think I'm just remembering when you first posted this - 9/27 - no voodoo or CRS :)

Glad its working with 28 rounds - problem solved! Good luck with the orlites.

Orange follower, is it one of those really long legged anti-tilt types? Like this one maybe?
