    The people at noveske were good enough to let me send it to them for evaluation. Will let you guys know what they say once the problems solved. Thanks for the replies.

    Brass flow.
    Popped pimers.

    Wouldn't this be a headspace issue?

    No doubt. Noveske has always shown me great customer service.

    The brass flow is a definite pressure issue. Dropped primers are generally a sign of the same.

    Several things can cause pressure issues including the ammo.

    I'd really love to hear all the possible causes of this - and how to narrow this down. This thread is destined to be educational... hope it's a cheap fix Greene

    A properly manufactured AR-15 can not fire out of battery.

    You have seen it, or you have seen it with an AR? I guess anything is possible.
