[QUOTE="C-130 Dude, post: 2541922, member: 122991"] Really glad the mag lips tweak worked out! AR308's can be a REAL pain in the *** to time out. My 2 cents: Get the gun mostly broke in and running smoothly so you can be sure all is well before moving on to any further adjustments. Take good notes on everything you do and change so you will know exactly what you have done. If something doesn't provide expected results, review the notes and work back. A little $$ tip here: KAK sells buffer kits that let you setup your own desired weights. And they are very reasonably priced. I used Sprinco springs. Moderately priced, but they are real good. I have over 16k rounds through one of my guns and not close to a new spring yet. When you fire it, what clock position are the cases landing at? 3-4 is great. 1-3 is over gassed. 4-5 is under gassed. But take this with a grain of salt. If you plan on using a suppressor or break, it will probably change the ejection pattern. Some brands of ammo may do this also.
