Last weak I took out my new DPMS LR-308 to break it in, and immediately was having failures ejecting spent rounds. Basically the rounds were getting ejected, but not exiting the chamber before the round below it was entering the chamber. Is this called a 'stovepipe' or something? Any ways, the round was log jamming with the next in line when it should have already exited the chamber.
I talked to DPMS and they said that the Rem Oil I was lubing with was too light for a gun that runs this hot, and the bolt was probably hanging up and not getting the round out fast enough. So I loaded it today with Tetra Gun Grease and had the same malfunction. A buddy suggested using Break-Free CLP. What do you all use? Has this happened to anyone else? :banghead:
