[QUOTE="DoneNOut, post: 2332400, member: 113404"] You have a gas setting problem. Meaning you are over gassed. I just went down this road on my 308 AR. Everything I shot out of it showed ejector smear/swipe. It wasn't until I adjusted the gas block to full bleed off setting that I got the ejector swipes to subside mostly. Then I discovered a heavier buffer could help with the overpressure/ejector smear. Went to a 5.3oz buffer (Up from a 3.8oz). The ejector smears completely disappeared, and I returned my gas block setting to a more balanced setting for 3:30 brass ejection pattern. [/QUOTE]
