m14 doesnt like norc ammo?

[D3vin]

Hi

out of curiosity have people had any troubles with these rounds? My rifle often fails to feed the next round. Ive done most of the tests on the rifle, tilt etc.. and everything seems to check through.
Ammo or something still buggy with my gun?

thanks for the help.

Brass or steel cased?

 

[pizdets17]

yes. I have. Everything else works fine. This stuff wont feed after the first round. Works like a bolt rifle..steel stuff

 

[D3vin]

Brass i believe?

these are the rounds that keep failing to feed.

Is it this stuff any good for bolt action rifle?

 

[pizdets17]

yep, but norc m14 don't like them lol.

Are all these rifles 18.5" barrels?

I avoid all kind of chinese ammo in my rifles... Wise personal choice... JP.

It was happening in my newer 18.5". My older, well worked in full length wasn't having trouble stripping rounds but quite often did not stay open on an empty mag.
Which I guess is sort of the same issue? 45ACPKING, are you thinking the bolt/action is not going back far enough to either strip a round or engage the bolt hold open?

I am on my second Norc M14. The first one I purchased sight unseen and when it arrived I noticed a distinct curve in the barrel. Returned it unfired and bought a second one used that I could inspect before the purchase. Put about 40 rounds (Norc) through it and had about 10 fail to feed.

That is Copper Washed Ammo Steel in that pic same ammo i use in my Norc M14 Haven't had feed issues yet but then I am not using the mini 5 rnd mag are u using that one or the 5/30 mag...

I shoot the norc ammo in my m14 with 5 rd $& mag. 1000plus rds zero issue. Do u clean ur rifle often?

 

[MstrBlstr]

I am using the same Norinco ammo in mine and it works fine. No failures of any kind, yet. About 50 rounds so far.
2012 18.6" with solid oprod spring guide and wolff oprod spring.

 

[D3vin]

Mine is indeed the 18.5" barrel. i use the 5\20 mags and yes i clean my rifle. also greased of course.

 

[Colin]

Mine loves it, no failures to feed and very accurate.

Absolutely. Ask chalkriver for his personal testimony! Team Norinco Plinko for the win.

 

[Rdrash]

Works fine in mine once I oiled and greased the gun. I didn't know how important greasing an m14 was.

I was the RSO on the firing line at an M14 (2 Day clinic) back in 2012 when chalkriver showed up with that copper washed Kommunist Zhinese zhit on my firing mound.

I told him to get that Zhit off my line since that Xhinese Xhit was just krapola. Well, didn't I eat my words at every firing mound when I looked through my spotting scope at his groups.

That ammo was surprisingly good!

Hence the moniker, "Team Norinco Plinko" from then on!

Copper washed cheeep Xhit for the win!

Cheers and keep helping the newbies...
