New M1A Scout Failure to Feed

I had trouble with my new Scout. The mags would not go home easily, especially with the bolt closed. It would feel locked in, but having trained on the M14, I knew better. There was no click when I engaged the front and pulled the mag rear to lock. After a few dozen very hard loadings with the bolt open, it works better, but is still a little tight. I figure "better tight than loose", and it seems to be improving. Make sure the front is locked in, and pull the mag bottom rearward. Don't need to push up as leverage is high with the front locked in. Mine is sub 2 MOA with optics and Tula ammo.
