Maybe a question for the M1A folks - I have heard that different mags can impact accuracy if they put different pressure on the bolt etc. from underneath?
Shot some good handload groups in my BAR Mk 3 [FN style] but then had some crazy flyers - didn't occur to me later that I may have been pushing the mag/magwell against my oversized front rest sandbag. This extended mag could have been under pressure - bag pushing the bottom front back and top rear up; maybe this is an issue?
Of course next range trip I will pay attention to this but just curious how severe this can be in different rifles; never seen it in AR platforms even using 30 rounders as a monopod off the bench.
Thoughts?
