I am having ongoing magazine and feeding problems with my 6gt. Rifle is a Defiance Tenacity action in a KRG bravo chassis. So far I have tried AICS, MDT, Accurate mag, and Magpul mags.
-Aics mags- Does not advance rounds level. After 4th to 5th round, cases start advancing nose high, bases dragging in the rear of the mag. Bolt skips over top of next round. Will usually feed after running the bolt a couple more times.
-MDT 12rd metal- spring seems way too weak, binds up on advance in every way possible, sometimes nose up, sometimes nose down.
-Accurate- identical to AICS problems.
-Magpul- works great until it does not. Front of follower gets hung up inside mag body and rounds nose dive.
I have adjusted, polished, tweaked springs and feed lips, adjusted trigger guard/mag catch position. All to no avail.
I found with the Aics and accurate mags that if I push all the rounds forward with the tips against the front of the mag it will feed flawless every time. I don't feel I would be able to maintain this however during live fire in a match situation. I am currently only shooting 105 Hybrids or VLD's and they both come in under the max COAL for most of the dasher / BR mags and kits. Has anyone ever tried a 6GT in a dasher kitted mag? I think having them pushed forward in the mag may help my issue.
I know that this subject has been covered over and over again. Just looking for a new option since all else has failed to this point.
