BCL 102 Update - It loves Federal GMM 168

Any updates on .308 surplus running through these rifles. Any "serious" concerns by owners.

My rifle did not like the FNM Nato ball, jamming 3 times in two 5 round mags. I posted this in my no bs range review & stopped using this ammo.

Hirtenberger runs flawlessly, but performs wrt accuracy as one might expect from ball ammo.

The Norinco copper washed surplus, fed/fired/extracted & then failed to properly chamber a new cartridge with it hung up on the way into the chamber. I then fired another 19 rounds without issue. Not sure I want to fire more of this ammunition in my rifle as another member posted a picture of a case with the rim ripped off by the extractor & I worry it may damage my rifle?

I have shot many groups with Norma Match & Barnes TSX that have been great for accuracy imho, and functioned flawlessly.

Cheers
Jay
 
I shot 4, 3 round groups with GMM and all we 1MOA - I did fire one 6 round group and 5 were 1MOA but 6th went to 2. Could that have been me, absolutely. I am happy to see two guns that both like the match kings maybe more can confirm if that is a good factory load for gun in general, but I know it works for mine.

Good to know, too bad I couldn't find any of it today :(
