I would like to see feedback on this from folks that also have multi-thousand round experience with 308 ARs. I have a AR 308 bolt that is scrubbing the edges hard enough to create a burr edge on the back side that will reduce headspace. I am currently using 175 BT with 42.5 gr of IMR 4895. The buffer spring and buffer has been replaced with a setup from Heavy Buffers and that reduced the effect about half. (Had an AR15 buffer and spring previously) Currently I am filing off the burrs. The burrs will raise enough to need attention after a 50 round HP match. Opinions, suggestions, feedback, criticism, welcomed. Thanks for your time. rWd

I can relate. mine is about 2 months and 400 cases old and you cannot buy it for what Doug will sell you a new one for! Great tool, great service. Worth every dime plus. Ron
