No I’m not resting it on the clip.


Got the email today it’s been shipped from stag so I should get it next week.

I agree, most feeding problems come from the mag. I would turn in the mag release another turn or more. And make sure the mag is as high up in the mag well as possible.

Well FedEx dropped it on my doorstep last night.

Haven’t shot it yet but remounted my scope. The gun shop in town had mounted the rock river arms mount with the thumb nuts facing the ejection side. That way before didn’t allow the cover to flip all the way up.

I turned the scope around and essentially have the mount backwards from the way it was to keep those thumb nuts out of the way. I’m assuming that’s not gonna be an issue? It gives me more clearance to grab my charging handle now as well.

If it warms up a touch today I’ll fire 3 shot bursts and see what happens. I did tighten the mag catch probably 6 or 7 times and it seemed to suck the mag up real good.

Yes sir! I know a guy can shoot a “righty” but why not have a lefty.

Bought my son “lefty’s” as well. He complained about shotguns blowback the worst and can cycle a bolt much faster on the left.

Took it out with a full clip and it fired all 10 rounds without an issue. I will sight it back in later today.


Still gonna be using up the PMC ammo I have for it. Hopefully the issues have been solved.

Took it out and sighted it in at 100 yards.

30 rounds of PMC through it with one minor failure to feed. Spent shell fully ejected and half loaded the next where it gets stuck at an angle.

3 rounds of Sig Sauer performance rounds that I will hunt with. Shot flawless for those.

im having the exact issue with my Stag LR308 , one of the things they told me was the buffer spring , said they had a screwup where AR15 springs mistakenly were sent out in a batch of LR308 rifles

some breakin periods are necessary do to the gas systems on AR's need carbon fouling to seal the gas system , with that said every AR ive ever bought brand new ran flawlessly out of the box , i have 200 rds in this Stag LR308 and i cant string more than 3 cycles together before it trys to shove 2 rds at once , ejects fine , throws the spent shell 4 feet , no adverse marks or scrapes on spent cartridge

i should say i am sorry for reviving this old thread but OP's issue is a exact blueprint of what i am experiencing
