    Official MDT 6BR Magazine Thread

    MDT CS has always been great in responding and helping find a solution. I’m sure they’ll help us figure this out!!! Would be nice to get a shorter follower if that is the fix.

    Damn I got the older version. Does MDT swap out the mags or the internals to the newer ones? @MDT_OFFICIAL @MDT_Josh

    How can you tell the difference between the new mag and the old mag? I got mine in 2022.

    308win trim length question

    You can probably let it grow longer to 2.015. Check the longest case against the end of the chamber using a bore scope or the Sinclair chamber length tool. The book suggests trimming cases really short which leads to carbon rings.

    Anyone tried taking the spring out and compressing it by putting a book or something heavy on it for a while? Sounds like the spring is to strong or not enough room in the magazine chamber. Almost lot it needs to fit 1/2 a round more to make it function smoothly.

    It gets smoother as you fire more rounds, but you need to be behind the gun. Grease on the lugs and oil of choice on the bolt and raceways. Lube/grease lightly inside the shroud where the firing pin sits, a small amount on the face of the bolt shroud, caulking cam, and lugs. I had some purple...

    Am I being an idiot - Why am I getting pressure signs here?

    Try measuring the loaded rounds CBTO and not COAL. Hornady is not the most consistent. I bet you see a lot of inconsistencies. Next use a comparator tool to measure the touch to the lands. Compare that number to your CBTO of your loaded rounds what do you see? If your seated into the lands with...

    Am I being an idiot - Why am I getting pressure signs here?

    I would guess that this is lead deposits accumulating at the mouth of the chamber and as you shoot more and more the build up may not be allowing the brass to expand at the case mouth and causing the heavy bolt lift. Or it could be the lead at the mouth of the brass that is not allowing the case...

    Am I being an idiot - Why am I getting pressure signs here?

    Is that lead deposits in the second picture? Not sure if those loads are hot but could be virgin brass expanding. The ejector mark is mainly from the ejector spring so heavy. Seems like false pressure since the primers look ok. Try shooting it without the suppressor to see if it makes a...

    1X fired Lapua 308 Win Brass Reloading Question

    Sounds like the OP talking about neck chamber clearance between fired brass .340 and loaded round of .338. Assuming no neck turn brass a .335 bushing with get you to about .002 neck tension or interference fit. A .337 bushing will be the same size as your loaded round which means almost no neck...

    Problems with calibrating (FL sizing) the base of the 223REM Lapua brass 6× and 15× fired
