I know some folks who "inherited" a huge stash of SS109. It is so hot, if you shoot it in the summer, it'll regularly dump primers into the trigger group. If I was a soldier in the field, I'd be downright upset over that. Primers (or anything else for that matter) in the trigger group can really mess with your mo-jo.

TAK/4321,
Why the new log-on/persona? Rick believes in "reincarnation". Sometimes a mans' gotta do what a man's gotta do. May you come back in your next life as a dung beetle.

True, but interesting, it won't hang up a box trigger like an AR Gold, we know that from experience. It'll lock a GI trigger up tighter than Dick's hatband. I'm pretty sure that ammo was out-of-spec and sold as such.

I had a bit of time last year with an LWRC shortie. It kicked harder than my SCAR 17S. It was kickin' the little brown men we were training dead in the azz. Fed 110gr. Gold Dots. The 30rd Pmag magazines are long/heavy and even I had trouble doing a tac load with them. They also were not very reliable, but the LWRC 5.56 guns have a stellar reputation.

I'm pretty sure that ammo was out-of-spec and sold as such. Yeah, that's one scenario where the sealed trigger is actually more reliable. But fill it full of sand and the standard trigger soldiers on where the sealed units tend to clam up. Good observation.

A rifle using standard velocity ammo with a suppressor tend to be louder than without the suppressor. Streed Cred.....Engaged

Some offbrand reloaded 300BO ammo made from lake city brass, once a primer gets under the trigger the thing wont work. First time I ever had it happen in my life. Took the rest of the boxes back to the gunstore and they took it back.
