Use good ammo.
Colt is a top shelf AR it should run ANY ammo.

There is no point in an expensive AR if it only eats expensive ammo.
So you're saying you'd pay more for a gun that's pickier about the ammo it shoots?
So your high end AR's are so unreliable that if you dare to put steel cased ammo in them they just don't run?
But if your AR won't run steel cased ammo something is wrong with it.
And since his gun is a colt it's chrome lined so that shouldn't be an issue at all.

Not necessarily. Unlike brass, after firing steel cases do not shrink very well to extract from chambers. Most of the time you won't have a problem, but in some guns you do.
We seem to be overlooking the fact that, cheap low quality ammo or not, the magazine is probably the problem.
Any good AR will run on any good 5.56 or .223 ammo you put in it. If your magazine is GOOD. And if you don't run it dry as a bone or something silly like that.
Yes...I'm talking about feeding two live rounds at the same time.
The mag I was using that produced the double-feeds is a 30-round PMAG. I had only put 20 rounds in each time. I loaded it three times - and had three double feeds.
