I might just get rid of the stock and try to get a new Mossberg MVP.  |
I called& visited with Fred@ SSS a while back& he did some measuring and while I don't remember the exact angle, the fireball length cases take a very extreme angle exiting the chamber. much steeper than the 223.
Fred was the one who told me about the mushroom ejector, he had a 30, or 6mm BR that was especially problematic about ejecting, so he adapted the idea from another rifle. If the tweaks he told me about didn't work, I would have gladly sent my bolt head to him for retrofitting. for a reasonable price too. iirc~$50.
