Tested some loads with my CZ550 Varmint today. It is .308 and has a box mag.
On higher charge weights (loaded one cartridge at a time) I'd find the corner of the mag closest to the trigger guard hanging low as if partially released.
Had I had more rounds in the mag, I'd have experienced failures to feed as the head of the case would have been below the lip of the bolt. I think the recoil was enough to make the mag release activate.
First time!
To fix it?
