[QUOTE="HawkinsPrecision, post: 2643331, member: 113324"] Some things to keep in mind, billet aluminum is harder than brass. We have steel AICS mags that scratch brass, but generally all mags wear in. Brass is soft. Please also keep in mind you need to load the magazine with rounds to snug them up. The LA magazines are designed with less clearance than the shorts. There's a lot of factors to this guys. Including pillars heights, stock fitment, COAL on your rounds, etc. If you're having issues we're happy to help. If you're running a belted magnum we have a new magnum magazine that feeds belts better, but you will always feel the belt coming through the magazine feed lips. Personally I have been hunting with these for 4 years now and we sell a lot of these for SA/MED/LA and the amount of issues is minuscule compared to the volume. Most of the time, someone has a pillar height issue. I would not be worried Mark. Let me know if you have any questions. Happy to help. Nick D. [/QUOTE]
