HEY ALL...was at my club range today to continue the break-in Ruger says for your new SFAR..have 150 rounds fired to date and was getting numerous fail to feed and no lock back...i did break it down completely at 100 rounds & also pulled the handguard to make sure it was not rubbing on the gas lock...pulled out the regulator also to clean that too...fired 40 factory rounds today..ww 150 power point & horn 168 bthp...
Just finished disassembly to clean it thinking the problem was dirty from firing....pulled handguard off and noticed the gas block was loose on the barrel...!!!! Did not notice that when i did the first cleaning....tightened the 2 3/32" set screws to 10inch lb torque.....will finish cleaning and try again tomorrow to see if it does what it is supposed to do.....fingers crossed....
