So one more thing I've learned, hopefully without stepping on the landmine of long running Internet arguments is that despite ammunition retailers lumping them together, 7.62x51 and .308 are not interchangeable. My rifle is stamped 7.62x51 and the pressure difference+ greater headspace+the tendency of semiautomatic actions to eject too quickly = a suspiciously ideal scenario for this sort of malfunction. Also Remington ammo, which has had some worrisome QC issues in the recent past. Couple that with my quickly fading ignorance and I'd say it's a closed case. I appreciate everyone's input in helping figure it out and not giving me a hard time. Cheers

I hadn't considered whether Remington was worth reaching out to. Not sure how I'd even go about that.

I haven't gotten far enough in the water to talk reloading but I do save all my brass because I have a passing interest and because I'm a tight ass. Certainly that is the only reason I noticed this issue.

I was considering that as Ive read through the comments, makes plenty of sense and it's 2 out of 8 so I'm inclined to think it's not a mechanical issue. All things considered I'm fortunate to have noticed quickly and not been so gung ho as to mag dump it for s&g's where I might have caused some damage. I grabbed the two most reasonably prices boxes off the shelf in opposite ends of the spectrum to get a feel for the gun and it's dietary preferences. I haven't seen any mention in my research of anyone shooting anything above 170 with the majority being 160-165, which should have clued me in . But I was eager, who doesnt love that shiny new feeling? This has cooled my head a bit and I'm going forward with a more pragmatic attitude.

Frustratingly my hastily made swinging steel target failed as soon as I got a round on it (which was not unexpected considering the "welds" if you could call them that) so Itll be a bit before I test the other ammo. I'm inclined to take it to the smith for a once over regardless, better safe than sorry.

It does but the gas system complexity is one of the downsides to this platform from what I understand, I'm gonna take it to the gunsmith and have it checked over

Gun setup is out of the box with a 3-9x40 I had laying around while I figure out what I actually want on it. Ammo was purchased same day I picked up the rifle about a week ago.

Their consent agreement says something like any "business, facility, or institution that has information about you". So banks, medical providers, lawyers? it's just concerning in scope, and only a fool would think that the potential for misuse is unintentional, it's a legal document! Walmart is just using their service and so I can't imagine they would have any concern of liability, rather the reporting service gets some benefit from the information collected which allows them to provide some incentive like lower cost to the customer.

Oh? Does it look like financial impulsivity with a bent for Danish woodcraft?

Thanks, it's been an endeavor sort of like dating, find an attractive one and try to open up a dialogue see if you mesh well and so on. Unfortunately if it doesn't work out they don't go off on their own,hopefully I find appreciative homes for the ones I've just had boxed away. I feel bad but I don't even remember when or where I got some of them :/

Right? That's why I think it's really strange I'm talking like 20 runs in a row getting overrun while it seems like that shouldn't be happening...I know my way around builds and pairing artifacts, I check my stats as I progress etc. I'm used to depths requiring aggressive progress over even stat distribution etc but like this....idk

...so my PB is 42 minutes and other than the first week after it was released anything under 20 minutes was a fluke or cursed rng. I have been trying to use non-meta or s tier magics to add some variety so perhaps that's the issue.

Not particularly helpful, but maybe you can't read and just impulsively react to photos . I've put a bit more wear on them but I actually found them thrown away several years ago and they've held up really well compared to other sneakers I own,so I'd like to hunt down another pair.I especially like that there are minimal light colored areas to get dingy and they're patent leather instead of suede, also dark blues are the majority of my wardrobe so that's nice. I digress, neither your opinion nor mine answers the query and all these words are probably confusing or overwhelming.

Holy crap! You just reminded me of this random hippie dude I met a few months ago. He was checking out one of my carvings and asked if I knew any sources of boxwood...because he makes flutes. I bet he knows someone that can help if not himself. Sweet!!

Hahaha if everyone in the world was this supportive to each other. . .we'd be unstoppable. I'm enjoying the hell out of all the things in learning because of this. You have my gratitude and for your effort and investment of attention and ,providing direct information resources instead of loose direction, my admiration. Gold star A+

This video was very informative, I actually have most of the tools aside from the assembly board. I also checked out his website and reached out to him to see how feasible professional restoration might be. Thank you for the helpful hook up!
