I'd blame mags or your extractor before I'd blame the upper, assuming it was built correctly.
i was thinking it may be the mag. it's a tapco. was shooting the remington .223 65 grain. don't think it's the extractor.
Try something other than garbage mags. Try GI with magpul followers or black magpuls. Also, what barrel/BCG are you dealing with?
saving for the magpul mag. will just use the stock one for now. have a 14.5" barrel. stock bushmaster
VLTOR upper will have M4 cuts. Most Bushmaster barrels don't.
i noticed when i pull the charging handle back, and let it go forward slowly, it doesn't always go all the way. 90% of the time it does. does that help figure anything out at all. i am looking at getting a new barrel. just don't know when.
Pics would also help.
