[QUOTE="762x51, post: 2496436, member: 94220"] i think it's the mags. i have the same issue with my 6.5 creedmoor with different factory loads. some manufacturers, i can load all 20 rounds and no issues. with hornady match ammo, the bolt won't cycle with a fully loaded mag. there's so much pressure on the bottom of the BCG that it can't ride all the back to pick up the next round. you've verified everything else i can think of. gas tube alignment would have been my next guess. i had a buddy that built a 10.5" 5.56 pistol and it wouldnt cycle after 3-4 rounds. i took the gas block off and realigned it and he was mag dumping in no time.
