I am trying to figure out what is wrong and maybe some one has had this happen.

Gun functioned and operated flawlessly and all of a sudden it quit chambering a round. The tip of the bullet is hitting low on the feed ramp and stopping there.  If I move bottom of the mag foward it will feed.  It just started doing this.  

Any help or info.

What brand of weapon, what magazines, what ammunition?

How many rounds through it and when did you last clean and/or lube it?

kept lubed and cleaned.

Rem core-lok ammo, factory colt magazine, and the gun is a Dalphon lower.

What upper?

Is this every round or only at a certain point in the magazine?

unknown upper.  Every round,  Unless you tilt the bottom of the mag foward.

Do you have other mags to try? What color is the magazine follower?

Is the magazine dirty inside or the body bent?

Sounds like the round is dragging in the magazine or the follower geometry is wrong.
