Hey Guys,
Just got my first PRS rifle built, and I've signed up for my first match taking place next weekend.
The gun (6GT) is hammering, but I'm having a little trouble with feeding out of two Accurate Mag 10 rounders.
Every ~7-8th round (and there's no consistency to which round it is...could be the 1st, 5th, or 10th etc.) the bolt will just ride over the round and nothing will chamber. 75% of the time you can cycle the action a few more times, and it'll move the case around enough to where the bolt picks up, and other times you have to reach your hand in there and push the round forward in the magazine.
With this kind of feed issue in mind, is this something I should bend the feed lips on, or should I get a spacer kit for the mag? It feels like if the round were sitting more forward in the mag it wouldn't be an issue, which is why I ask about the spacer. As a mag-fed newbie, I'm a little hesitant to go bending up $100 mags.
Any suggestions on how to best handle?
Thanks,
Mike
