Well, took my newly built 300 blackout SBR out for its maiden voyage today. Encountered an issue. Shooting 124gr supersonic factory loads, it will eject empty cartridge but will not pick up the next round. I placed a standard carbine buffer with no change. All casings eject at about the 4 o clock position.

Shot 5 208gr subsonic loads and they didn't eject at all for what it's worth.

Specs:
10.3 Daniel Defense barrel
Geisselle gas block
Pistol length gas system
Standard buffer
Mags - pmag and a fn factory mag

My 300blkout works perfect.... unfortunately the guy that built my 300 crashed into a boulder so he can’t help you.
 
My ar-10 did that too when I first got it finished. I put mine up for a couple of days with the bolt locked open and next time I took it out it ran fine. I figured that new buffer spring was too strong and needed to be whipped into shape.
