Crash you still have not addressed your buffer/spring/tube in your rifle as for as I know..last time you posted was that you got some primary arms system buffer spring.....
if your $hit doesnt look like this AND its not an Armalite system you got squat...post up pics of what you got...and measure the inside length of your buffer tube for God's sakes...and ppu 168 grain ammo is perfect for all and I mean all of my 308's......and I would like to see a pic of your hammer spring installed so we can make sure you dont have it installed backwards...and to top it all off you named your rifle Shelia...thats fitting for a fouled up rifle...every Shelia ive ever known was a non workable nut case Wash
