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.

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.

Two very inaccurate rifles

The axis has a pretty rough action when new but is generally a pretty accurate platform. Ive run 5 different axis rifles over the years, from the axis 1 to the axis 2 pro, and they have all been capable of sub moa accuracy with factory loads
