Blown primers - 10/11/17 03:16 AM
I have some PNW 300 BO loaded with 125 SST. Supposedly it's factory new ammunition.
It's not the best ammo, but it's functioned with no issues until last night. I blew two primers and the primers got stuck inside the M4 feed ramps. After clearing the jam and chamber, I thought it was a fluke and fired one more round. That round blew a primer too, so I stopped shooting. My question is what would be the primary reasons
for a blown primer?
Setup is a 8.5" SBR running a suppressor, and as I've stated no previous issues with gun or ammo.
I have read in reviews that blown primers were one of the chief complaints with PNW ammunition.
