[QUOTE="Chad Erickson, post: 2516600, member: 122822"] As a neophyte AR-15 owner shooting the 6.5 Grendel, I had 12 months of such cycling problems. Here are three fixes that totally solved my problems: 1. Purchased the AR-15 cleaning tool and scrapped out the inside of the bolt. Mine was FULL of carbon crude. 2. Upgraded to a stronger ejector. 3. Last, but not least, I replaced the carbine length buffer spring with a rifle buffer spring, and added a heavier buffer. This one did the trick. It functions flawlessly now. Guess I won't sell it after all. Other hints are to reduce carbon build up by staying away from cheap ammo, reloading with a faster burning power, and cleaning and oiling at 100 round intervals. [/QUOTE]
