My son and I had bought 250 rounds of Brown Bear .308 cartridges to spend and the rifle wouldn't pop the primer! It just dented the primers. A borrowed M1 fired the Brown Bear cartridges fine, and the R-25 fired American made ammo. The hammer spring seems very weak (anecdotal admittedly). A Remington authorized gunsmith said the hammer won't work on thicker primers. Why is it a $1500 rifle can't fire these rounds? I'm selling it and waiting for a Armorlite.
