How much ejector swipe is "normal" for a DPMS LR 308?
I just started a ladder test with Varget, & 208 A Max. Loaded to mag length, which is in there a lot. I went from 39.0-41.7 but didn't get that far. Over 41gr I was seeing pretty hard cratering, & obvious ejector swipe. BUT I also had some lower charges that showed swipe, & didn't on the next one. Seems random. My 150gr BT load also does the odd one. I also noticed that as the charge increased the brass began ejecting farther to my side. The lower charges landed more forward.Say 2:00 position on the lower charges, & almost 3:00 for the heavier ones. This is the 1st gas gun I've ever done load work up on.
Thanks.
