Ok, the last time I was at the range, I had trouble with FTL malfunction.  The round fired fine, but a new cartridge failed to load.  So I had to recharge on several occations.  I was shooting with Wolf 55gr FMJ (I know, it was all about the $).  Anyway, is this normally a cartridge issue?  Do others find that they have to recharge several times through a magazine?  Or is this a rifle issue, maybe a gas problem?

Could be that the Wolf Ammo. just is not producing enough pressure to work the BCG. Did you try another brand of AMMO.?

Not yet.  I plan on going to the range this weekend and running some Radway Green 5.56 through it.  I'll post in with the results.
