I have a 223 Model 11 Trophy Hunter DBM - centerfeed. It was feeding fine until I tried Hornady 55gr FMJ when the bolt would slide over the round. Now it is getting worse and I have to push up on the magazine even for other brands of ammo. In total, a little over 100 rounds through this rifle and magazine.
I think the plastic wears on the catch making it sit lower. I am looking for a shim to get the metal portion of the magazine to sit higher. Has anyone modified the plastic DBM (same thing as the AXIS mag)?
