do the shell casings look odd in any way? maybe u got some hot loads and its to much pressure? i dunno, just a thought....im still fairly new to the AR world myself.
I am wondering the same thing. The first round that was stuck looked like the case had swollen. I guess I'll try some different ammo and see if it makes a difference. I meant to last night, and got out there and realized I only had a batch of the same stuff.
Just throwing some stuff out there:
What's the rifle chambered for, .223 or 5.56?
Are you shooting .223 or 5.56?
stuck cases causing the bolt carrier/bolt hang up and damaging the rings?

you may have a non-chrome lined barrel that has lite rust in the chamber.
get a "chamber brush" and spin it with some oil on a hand drill lightly.
the casings expand and hang up on the rust.
most barrels will be marked with caliber between front sight and flash hider.
does it say anything there?

Don't see any marks there.
Flash suppressor.... If it can be unscrewed you are screwed!
If it is a RRA upper the barrel info will be under the handquards. Take the handguatds off and the info should be stamped back towards the chamber end of the barrel. I beleive on the topside but you may have to look a little. To get the code meanings there are several websites that have it. The "other" sight that deals with this type of firearm is a good source for decoding. As for shaw barrels...not much info at their sight.
The flash suppressor can't come off.
What exactly is the difference between 223 and 5.56
