I purchased a complete upper before ohio gun season. @ $196.00 shipped I couldn't pass it up. I received it in the shop, cleaned the gunk out of it, and checked every screw for proper torque. Everything looks and checks out great. I picked up a factory Bushmaster mag (9 ish rounds fit) at a show, and went to the range. ( lurking for weeks here I brought along a Sig mag out of my 556 kit). Holy crap the issues: FTE, sooting, FTFeed. I cleaned every 10 rounds, and fired 3 types of ammo. Sig mag gave me the best results. The bushmaster mag is garbage imo. 1 box each of : Hornady Black, Remington Accutip, Hornady custom. I increased my rifle buffer weight to 6.1 ounces trying to retard the bcg a little and still had unsatisfactory results on the last 10 rounds. Accuracy is awesome with both Hornady types, and I've taken 2 deer with it already. This weekend is Ohio's bonus gun weekend. Any suggestions on where to go from here?
