First I've heard of it! I don't think I have any of Lot 11, but I'll have to check my "rainy day" storage and see!
How much of it do you have? Go shoot it [b]ALL[/b] and let me know if it happens again! [:D] |

I am shooting Lot 22 & 23 and they are loaded quite hot, very accurate. The brass isnt super shiny but i havent had a single problem in my rifle. |

I shot over 1000 rounds of lot 11 a couple of weeks ago. I cannot say I had any FTF problems due to ammo. The only problems I had were specifically related to a loosened carrier key and unbelievable amounts of carbon build up after about 400-500 rounds of shooting this stuff. The build up was so bad the bolt would not freely move in the carrier. After a quick cleaning of the bolt, I was back in business.

As a Small Arms Repairman (2111) in the Corps in the early 70s, I was able to witness many thousands of rounds fired and did see an occasional "dud" with USGI LC M193. IT was rare, but it did happen. IIRC, Olin owned the LC plant at that time.

I'm using Lot 10 now. Hot as a firecracker (3,350+ averages from 20" Bushy at 78 degrees F) but no FTE's.
