[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 2496140, member: 94491"] Adjust lips so nose of bullet is up-- may not fix the problem but it definitely won't hurt it either. When you put more rounds in mag- pressure on ammo is greater against lips and can cause misfeeds, bolt jump over, or bolt to not cycle correctly. If you adjust feed ramps so bullet is more nose up then it eases the force that it takes to load the bullet, also the nose doesn't hit the feed ramp. Your loaded mags look like my top picture example-- tweak the lips until the bullet noses up to look more like my bottom pic Try tweaking the lips in one of the mags and see if it helps at all When the gas block is all the way open? Where does your brass eject? [/QUOTE]
