[ARCHIVED THREAD] - What kind of results are you guys having in your PTR's with South African .308?

I took it to the range today and out of 100 shots or so I had about 6 jams. About half weren't feeding properly and the other half weren't ejecting properly

I tried out some Remington and had no problems, but I don't think the test base was all that fantastic as I only shot about 30 rounds of that (seperate from the 100)

Thanks for your input fellas.

So far, I can say they fit in the mags.

I haven't taken it out yet with the SA, but I'll be sure to update when I do.

I have been wanting to try some myself so I picked up a battlepack today. I will shoot it tomorrow and let you know how it runs. I have not heard a bad word about the SA yet.

I used it once and began experiencing several FTE with a Century G3. I swithched to Port and never had a problem again. However, the gun was brand new at the time and may have needed a better cleaning and breaking in.

No issues. Runs great.

South African is the new aussie for me.

runs great in my FAL, haven't tried it in a G3 yet, but as far as i'm concerned the FAL is more finicky on ammo so I would expect the PTR91 to eat it up no problem.
