    The NOE 247 grain is notorious for not feeding or should I say stacking well in 223 mags due to interfenernce with the ribs in the mag. Switching to the Magpul 300 Blackout mags will resolve that.
    I havent had any feeding issues since i widened the feed ramps except with a cheap magazine from somewhere without the anti tilt follower. With the Pmags and Lancers they work fine.

    That's the key right there. Trying to avoid the extra step if I can.

    Im gonna try using FA Drop Out in the nose area to make the nose smaller. Some have used that on this site to reduce nose size.

    Let me know how that goes. I was wondering if smoking the mold might have a similar effect some I've heard smoked molds drop smaller boolits. Either would be an easy fix.

    The layer of carbon left by properly smoking a mold is incredibly thin. I've never noticed a difference and I smoke all my molds.
    On every question of construction let us carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text or invented against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed.
