If the rifle is ejecting factory ammo at ~3:00, it's working correctly. Either change the powder or the load. Brass, primer, and mostly your chamber can all be factors in speed and pressure. Not every load you try is going to work in terms of accuracy and function.

Try some varget, XBR-8208, CFE, etc.



I increased the charge on one of the loads that was giving me problems by two tenths of a grain, fired five rounds as fast as I could pull the trigger, all rounds ejected however they only ejected about three feet at about 3:30. It has never ejected rounds very far since I had it, some rounds eject farther than others, six feet is about as far as any rounds have ejected. I am now debating whether to stop using 2520 even though it appears to be working better or trying another powder in it's place, maybe AR comp.
