Has anyone used these for fast paced, high volume shooting for a long enough time to comment on their reliability?

I beat the shit out of new products. I've dropped them from 10' on to concrete with full loads with no damage, (might pop a round or two out)

I've rapid-fired my 716 but not excessively with them. Maybe 100rd. No difference between them and the Gen1 20s for me so far.

I have three and have had them out to the range several times with my SCAR 17s. Not a single issue as of yet once I sanded some of the tabs down in order to better fit my lower.

Just to second the above responses^^^ the 25 round .308 PMags are good to go.

The only issue I have seen is not dropping free, which is easily fixed with wear-in and/or some light sanding.

I rip all my mags free so I didn't even consider that aspect. I'll give it a shot the next time I go shooting my .308 and see.

I have one I use for 3 gun (heavy metal). I have have zero issues at all, cycles perfect, bolt locks back on the last round, and drops free everytime. I even used it as a monopod on one stage.

I didn't realize these were out yet. I've been holding out and making do with my old DPMS and C Products steel mags until I can get my hands on the 25 round Pmags. It looks to me like they will be more like the length of an AR-15 30 rounder, and can be used as a monopod. I'm glad to see some positive reviews... I will be getting some of these real soon.
