After watching the video I discovered there was a fireball on the first shot when I put my can on my buddies AR10. Can is YHM 7.62 Ti. None of my rifles did this as far as I can tell. Is this anything to be concerned about?

Re: AR10 fireball on first shot

Shoot it in the dark and I think you'll find that MOST can's have a flash signature on the first shot. I doubt it's the gun, it's the can...and it's not just THAT can either. The less oxygen you have in the can when the first shot is taken, the less flash you'll have.
From 100 yds down range, I doubt you would have been able to tell it was a flash and not muzzle exhaust, unless you were looking at the bore through a scope or in failing light, and by then it's too late.

Re: AR10 fireball on first shot

I would bet that there was substantial amount of cleaning/lubricating oil or spray that lit up that first round.

Thanks for the replies. Nothing to worry about as I suspected, just making sure.
