[QUOTE="RockyMtnUT, post: 2643357, member: 40704"] Dont worry about it. It will be fine... There have 6 out 6 that needed scotch brite that I'm aware of 3 being mine bought at different times. I don't like for my mags to have a "break in" time while scratching deep scratches to Adg brass. Just work the pad on it and it will be fine. They are nice products still but will most likely go back to their m5 bdl or sunnyhill. I'm sorry, but some of these scratched the h ell out brass not just light stuff. Just run your cartridge through it and then clean up the lips if needed and your gtg. [I]This has absolutely 0% to do with the action as others have[/I] [I]suspected. I am using "ONLY" (LOL) high end top of the line actions like others have stated below and the same smith coincidently which has no bearing on the magazine feeding "gritty".[/I] * Then for the guys using the Long action mag wanting to convert to a saum/6.5prc mag "spacer kit" and not sure whether its needed? Short answer is its not. They will feed fine in Long mag but, the rounds will need to be stacked against back wall is all. If money is tight? It's not a must have but does help to space round towards the front of mag. For all the ones that have had issues... it probably would have been best for supplier to just say that they will send out a new one with a return postage for the potential bad one back. Oh well.
