Everything probably just needs worn in. Keep it lubed with CLP and you should be good to go.

If it malfunctions a couple times in the first 1000rds, or so, it is probably just breaking in.
After that is when it should be running 99.99%. WIZZO |

I'd be curious about how well lubed the rifle was when you hit the range, and what ammo you were using. A "brand spankin' new" RRA rifle shouldn't give you any problem if it's well lubed and you use quality ammunition.

I was using Remington ammo and it was well lubed with Militec...I'm not sure if a lot of you are familiar with that ( http://www.militec.com/ )but it's the shit, I've never been a big fan of CLP.

Range report for Monday...
Several stoppages (double-feeds) with newly built weapon. Likely its the older mags I was using. However, I agree that all parts need to be "seasoned" or broken-in to achieve maximum performance. In fact on my 9mm rig' I polished the bolt's rails to REALLY glide! |

New info...I put another 300 rounds through it today using CLP and...worked like a dream! So back to tried, trusted and true again for me.
I love this rifle...a cop out at the range had a colt and everyone who used both our rifles liked mine better, the 2 stage trigger, balance, weight, etc. I love it. D |
