I was shooting factory loads....I have no idea what caused the failure...but two of the lugs broke off...and as you can see the metal is really poor looking....

The manufacturer has replied to me. And they will make good on their warranty.

That is good that they stand behind the product. Odd that it shoots large groups because almost any AR will shoot MOA.

Got 1lb of CFE223 and 1lb of BLC2 and 1000 62gr fmj coming this week. Time to build some AR ammo! Still waiting for the new bolt to arrive...
Any favorite recipes or hints for AR loads?
