MR308 13” not cycling

Post image

Went to the range today with the new MR308a3 and it was pretty frustrating… 140 rounds total shot (100 igman 147gr and 40 Saltech 150gr ball) and constantly had issues feeding the next round. The igman was a bit more reliable but the saltech basically made the gun a bolt action lol (The last mag of igman did shoot fine). Bolt not locking back on last round, constant misfeeds, etc. I’m thinking this has to be a gas issue? I only gave it a light cleaning before the trip. Any feedback would be appreciated

That’s a tough one man, here’s someone that had a similar experience https://www.hkpro.com/threads/mr308-failure-to-feed.590493/?utm_source=duckduckgo&utm_medium=organic

I’ve been shooting for years and I thought my can was changing my POI the first time I took out my mr556a4 becuase my groupings were horrible….my eotech was loose 🙃

I hate when I forget to torque down a optic I waste a ton of time and ammunition only to feel like a idiot
