Gun and gear reviews Aguila 308 junk?

Anybody else having problems with this ammo? Had two different 308 bolt action rifles try to fire this stuff and it won't ignite the primer on either of them. Rifles work fine with other ammo.

Those strikes look a little light no? Or is it just the photo angle?

They definitely look like light strikes, but given OP tried the ammo in two rifles that leads me to think it's the ammo. What brand rifles were they OP?

I think aguila somehow slipped up and made this lots primer cups out of adamantium

Savage Axis and my buddies Mossberg. We were shooting other ammo just fine.

Like, I know savage is not the “best” brand and I don’t know much about mossberg rifles but I know mossberg’s basic firearms lines are not exactly premium either, but both of them having trouble firing is still weird and probably the ammo.
