    Yea I've heard of ARs just not liking steel cases for no reason that can be solved. I haven't tried it in mine and by no means am I saying steel is bad for your weapon, just some dont like it. Strange

      Regular semi auto eats it just fine, just not on full. Oh well, like you said no cheap mag dumps.

        Is this lacquered steel case or un-lacquered? If it's the lacquered case (like wolf), that could very likely be the problem.
