I figured I'd post here because you all reload this stuff. I have some factory ammo that I shot today.

First day out with the kriss vector sbr. I was using a Korean 40 round drum mag. I noticed a few failure to feeds and a few that didn't ignite. After running one mag I have these three rounds I had to shake out like they were failure to ejects.

I was shooting suppressed if that makes a difference.

Improper crimp would be my guess.
 
I'm gonna guess either the mag isn't lifting the rounds fast enough, or the gun has an issue, major setback is kinda odd with ball if it's even close to feeding right.
 
I found 4 or 5 just like that in the last box of Federal Aluminum case I got.....I didn't run them so I don't know what they would have done in the gun.....

I bet you're right about the mag lifting. I'll give it a try with factory Glock mags.
