I ran my Loki 3g rifle today at a match and had what I think were multiple failures to go into battery. I didn't slow down to look to hard because I was on the clock, but I did notice one round had the bullet smashed to one side like it had rammed into the feed ramp or chamber area extra hard. I assume the rest were like this too. I plan to get out to the range with it and try to get the same failure and really look to see what's going on. Aside from the stuck Tulammo .223 case that hosed me on one stage I had probably 15-25% failures like described above. Bang, Bang, slack trigger, cycle the action Bang, slack trigger, cycle the action, Bang, slack trigger. You get the idea. It was ejecting live rounds when cycling the action. The one round I stopped to look at with the jacked up bullet had not been primer struck. I used a mix of Tulammo steel cased .223, Federal xm193, and m855. The gun was non prejudiced as to what ammo it malfunctioned with. This also happened once out of a box of 50rds. of Hornady steel match when I first got it a few weeks ago. I ran about 120 rounds of Remington UMC 55gr brass cased stuff with no issues.
Anyone had this before? I am new to AR's, this one being my first. I've only shot about 250 rounds through it so far. Maybe 350 rounds total with friends shooting it.Not really sure where to go from here except reaffirming the problem at the range and maybe contacting Loki. Any help or ideas is greatly appreciated.
