Heavy lube is important for a somewhat high round count, like in a class, but a moderate amount will suffice for most. Just don't run it dry. While any gun oil will work, some are better than others. Slip 2000 is one that has a good track record. I still have a few sample size bottles floating around. PM me if you want to try some out. I can drop one in the mail tomorrow.

Thanks. I lubed it today with CLR so I'll see if that works. I won't be shooting until Friday, so I'll let you know then.

I just got back from the range and I'm pleased to report that the rifle ran much smoother today. 150 rounds put through it. I still had a couple of feed problems, but I'm convinced that when the gun gets some more use, things will settle. I'm sure the buffer spring is real stiff right now, but will loosen up some and general wear will make it more forgiving. Groups were acceptable, but it's only a 40 ft. range. Thank you all for your input.
