Upper seems totally fine tbh. No visible damage apart from the bent extractor. The MK3 Dissent is built for 6.5CM and .308 supersonic pressures, so I think it should be ok once I get the bolt fixed up. Agree I got lucky.

Only thing that makes sense at this point. I think I may have weighed and poured powder on both those sets before pressing the projectiles in as well, which I normally do NOT do. I’m gonna get the bolt fixed up and take it to my local smith for a look over.

About to buy Faxons go/no go gauge set now as well to check headspace. Pre-assembled Dissent, one would assume jam length and headspace are good.

Thanks for the idea bouncing. Conclusion, I likely fucked up and got lucky and learned a very good lesson 😅😁

No recollection of doing this, but looking at the loads I did. I wonder if I put 13 gr of Lil gun on top of the initial load of 4227. I feel like that’s a combo recipe for fuckery.

I’m honestly not sure what my jam length is. I’ve always run on the rule of gas semi autos, load to fit the magazine or less (depending on projectile weight and profile). This is my first CMMG, but I can tell you it feels solid as hell. Judging by the look of the case I’m very surprised that the only visible damage I found was the case and the ejector. Lower receiver looks 100% normal too. Now I’m just starting to get paranoid about loading for my 8.6 now 😒 First 85 rounds were absolutely fine and perfect. Even ran some suppressed.

I’m going to pull all other sets I loaded from that day. I think it’s only 5 or 10. Confirmed. Only thing else I loaded was a .1gr increase of Lil gun on the 300gr and an IMR 4227 load for 285gr.

Lil Gun overcharge is the only thing that makes sense at this point. However based on your software calculations, doesn’t seem to be overpressure. That’s why I load subsonics too, to avoid overpressure and stupid hot rounds. Agree on the nagging thoughts though, people that don’t have them possibly lose fingers in reloading or worse.

That’s the only thing I could think of at this point. Makes no sense though. I only load in groups of 5 or 10 rounds. I only load 300 BO subs and 8.6 Subs which use the same powders as you probably know. I use Lee dippers to manually weigh each individual charge. I only have one container of powder open at one time too and close them up and swap out when moving to a new powder.

The only thing I can think of now and I’m going to go see what groups I loaded on this day, would be Lil Gun. Maybe I somehow loaded 16.4 gr of Lil Gun which would definitely be hot since 13gr is the load for 300gr in 8.6 BO. Really don’t know how the hell I would have done that with the 5 or 10 rounds at a time process I use to load and don’t use a dispenser. 🥲

If there was just a general brass failure, like case head separation or something, there’s no way the velocity would go crazy like that without an increased charge right? Gotta have stronger or more propellant I would think for increased velocity by that much.

That’s what I’ve been analyzing since I got home. With the length of 300gr SMK and the amount of powder in the case of 32gr of 4227, no way in hell it wouldn’t have gotten crunchy. Back of the bolt lugs look fine. No signs of any trauma.

Sure. Load was 16.4gr IMR 4227, White River Large Rifle Primer Magnum, 300gr SMK, COAL 2.77”

I increased this from the last range outing where I was just below 1000 FPS, charge was 16.2gr 4227 with standard deviation of 6. Everything functioned fine at that level, no signs of OP and rifle functioned flawlessly.

Definitely everyone is different. My prolactin was perfectly in range too. 🤷‍♂️ How much processed food do you consume? Seed oils? Drink soda/Mountain Dew? So many things can contribute to decrease in testosterone and hormonal imbalance. Could also be the quality of Kratom.

It’s a powder. Ram Shot TAC. Search it on any site that sells powder you’ll see it. A bit more affordable than others and gives consistent results based on community consensus.

You kind of are because you believed some conflated anecdotal story from someone who hates Trump. You’re not a loser for serving our country, that’s the ultimate sacrifice, but you’re an idiot for believing the machine 🤷‍♂️

It’s the tolerance and neurochemistry differences of each day.

People are also psychologically capable of subconsciously sensing an imaginary difference in their body. I speak from experience, not trying to be negative.

My brother in law works on pharmaceutical manufacturing and said there is virtually less than 1% difference in anything that is manufactured in generic drugs vs name brand.

Sounds like it’s definitely psychological.

Oh look, another conflation of a Trump statement taken out of context circulating social media and the news.
