I ordered and install the titanium carrier with the current bolt I was using from the ball carrier
The round would load but it would not fully engage the bolt into the lugs. It was however very close to being there. They were very hard to eject with the charging handle.
Took the rounds back to my house and measured them in the Le Wilson case Gage. Nothing noticeable with this.
So I started measuring the factory rounds versus my reloads and found very minor differences in the tune of 2 to 3 thousand at the base of the case.
