So I had several Type 4s today, couldn't get the charging handle back after a failure to fire and had to mortar it.
PSA upper and lower, reloaded ammo. Each time was after firing multiple rounds, ie. wasn't that I pussey'd the handle on charging it.
Problem I:
Primers on those several rounds were dimpled but no ignition. After clearing it I loaded those rounds a second time, they both fired. Sellier & Bellot (Zapalky) primers.
Problem II:
The type 4 malfunctions. My reloaded rounds were once-fired casings that had been sized with an RCBS Small Base X-die. They all passed muster in a Wilson case gauge and a Lyman case gauge. So I don't think they were bulged. Were definitely not over-long
I then tried factory ammunition. All rounds fired, but if I tried to eject a round without firing it, the charging handle was stuck. But the rounds would still fire normally and the rifle cycled and chambered the next round.
The AR15 is relatively new, probably has about 500 rounds through it, and maybe 250 since cleaning.
