.350 Legend / .450 Bushmaster Feed problems Solved?

[LCsmith]

This place claims to have a High Performance Ejector Upgrade thats supposed to prevent jams when feeding for .300 BLK .350 & .450 AR Platforms

I’ve not had a problem in my ruger 450 bm

In what way would an ejector “upgrade” prevent “jams” related to feeding? Makes absolutely no sense; the ejector has nothing to do with feeding.

An ejector upgrade would only assist with……….ejection.

The OP’s post is about a part for an AR upgrade, while your Ruger is a bolt action……if it’s a factory rifle.

Allows the base of the cartridge to find the center of the bolt face to go straight into the chamber since .350/.450 are "straightwall" cartridges AR platforms, makes sense, saves ammo?

The round has already entered the chamber before it contacts the ejector in any appreciable way.

I am going to try it on a BCA .350 upper that stovepipes and see if it makes a difference...... a friend has a ruger .350 doing the same thing he is ordering one also

Is there anything wrong with upgrading? even if you do not have an issue? Upgrades are supposed to be better? kinda like hot rod car parts?

I built a 6.8 and it wouldn't feed. It was a Daniel Defense BCG. The ejector was just a hair to long and would not allow the cartridge to slide all the over and seat. So a faulty ejector Can cause feeding issues. The round would go in about half way and not go into full battery. If I had to take a wild guess the spring pressure could be to strong and not let the round seat easily. I am not sure that's it but it's the only thing I could think of to cause that.
