Nope. My only problems have been tuning the gas system so it works correctly

No problem.
Why do you ask? |

They're the only mags I've ever used for my .308 and 6.5 ARs. Never had a single problem.

I've not had any problem with mine, 308 P-Mags are all I own for my 6.5.
6.5 Creedmoor based on the 308 case, so the 308 mags work perfectly fine. |

I have never had any issues with factory ammo, but there are some that have longer internal dimensions for longer oal if you reload.
I believe Lancers have the most internal length that will let you feed longer rounds. |

The only issue I have had is plastic being slightly thicker than metal, you do lose a little room for longer OAL rounds

I didn't spend more than one range trip to do this. Not at all difficult. Took me four rounds to set the gas block on my 6.5 and ten rounds for the adjustable carrier on my .308. Haven't touched either in years. |

They work well for my 6.5 Manbun rifles.

M118LR magazines permit a round with longer OAL. |
