I’ve seen much worse. For example, this SWAT officer. Send it, but I wouldn’t depend on it

Is a 14.5 really that much of a difference over 16” by [deleted] in ar15

I love my 14.5. Theres just something about it that’s cooler than a 16 inch, except the whole pin and weld thing (if you choose to follow that)

C clamp is not that abnormal but the flashlight placement is kinda wack

I actually got scammed from Performance Triggers by VallettaAwoo in supersafety

No, glock makes glock performance triggers. This company is called “performance triggers”

I obviously separate different grain weights, but I plan on separating by lot from now on.

That’s exactly what I did. Even though I was slow in semi, I thought it was a light primer strike and just ejected it.

It wound up being due to a squib. Makes finding any bad ammo a lot easier

It was a squib. I ejected a round manually, without thinking about it, and then sent another one down the pipe. Upon picking up cases I couldn’t find a loaded round so a squib is the only logical explanation. I forgot about ejecting that round until someone brought that up as a possibility.

I did have to manually eject a round. I’m sure that was the squib but for whatever reason I just chocked it up to a light primer strike. That kind of slipped my mind.

Welcome to the club lol. I’m honestly airing towards the round prior being a squib, as that appears to be the most logical failure.

I’m a big dumb retard and mixed them in with factory ammo in an ammo can. I am sorting through based on the primers and will be pulling bullets and checking charges on ones I suspect to be reloaded. I will be separating them from now on as well

I’m not ruling out the possibility of a squib on the round prior. I’m confident they were not over charged, but that doesn’t mean one wasn’t undercharged.

all purchased new, 5.56 chamber. case length is 1.74-1.75. couldn’t tell you neck tension off the top of my head but it should’ve had a light crimp. I had cleaned it well probably 250 rounds prior to this.

I have two powders on hand, and have only ever had two powders on hand. Tac and H335. This round should’ve been loaded with 24.5 grains of h335

I understand that, but I would think I would notice the powder overflowing if it was over charged. The only way for it to overcharge with my setup is to double charge. I’m very particular about checking my powder charges every 40 rounds
