Well, I looked into the problem some more(with a bright light) and found a sharp shoulder at the rear of the chamber about .050 wide just at the end of the feed ramp. I rounded off the point of a bullet and it feed just fine.
So, the guestion is just shoot round nose bullets? I thought .243 was designed for those pointy little things.
The other choise is to dremel a slight radious of the shoulder.
This area is under the rim so no problem with leaving it unsupported.
And, no, it is not a problem with the mag spring.
later, ace
