Yesterday a buddy of mine stopped over, he is a new AR owner and he had a problem. He said that he shot his new rifle (new 16 inch Stoner upper and new aero lower) about 60 rounds of new 223 brass cased ammo. A few days later he bought some .223 made by ammo Inc., it's reloaded ammo and he had failure to fire and failure to extract problems.
The first thing I did was check the Ammo Inc. stuff. I noticed they had silver primers, reloaded cases with dings, not new ammo. In my experience most new ammo has bronze primers. Comes to find out that none of these cartridges would pass a case gauge check or the plunk test in my new 556 barrel.
Has anybody had any problems with this reloaded ammo from bi Mart?
He called bi Mart and they just stated that they have no returns on ammunition and didn't want to hear that they are selling bad ammo. His next step is to contact ammo Inc. directly to see what they want to do about this situation.
