My 30rd mags can't load more than 7 rounds

Ruger brand 30 round magazines

After around 10 rounds or so, the bottom few bullets jam against the forward and rear walls of all four of my 30 round mags. Thus I can tip over the mag and all the remaining rounds will loosely fall out and the follower remains jammed under the stuck round.

My 20 round mags loaded perfectly. None of the thirty rounders will work.

I can get the bullets out of the magazine no issue but how do I prevent this from happening.

Bullets stuck in 30 rd mag

My 30rd mags will jam 5.56 cartridges inside of the magazine and there's evidence of the nose of the cartridges grinding against the inside of the magazine.

The picture above is of a bullet stuck half way down the magazine well, wedged against each wall

Idk what to do I disassembled it and cleaned and lubed it only for the same problem to happen

First FS 180

Ditch was flooded except like 30ft of flat, you can see the tree that fell the night before in the storm. So I just did these and practiced my form with Ollies for an hour or so.

Consistently going out to skate for a little bit a couple times a week definitely has me learning more as opposed to going sporadically but for like 4+ hours.

Once I got the first one the muscle memory really kicked in, and they're pretty solid now. Next is to add some air to it!

Is there a frequent flyers club for the CDS?

Was on my way to work when my girlfriend said that she saw a cat on the barrier of an overpass.

Sure enough I saw an 8 week old kitten panting on the cement barrier of an overpass above another 6 lanes of traffic.

When I reached for her she tried to jump off 40+ feet below but I snagged her and she cut my hand up good. I threw her in my backseat while I dealt with my blood and the little one crawled up thru my pedals and into the internals of my dashboard.

One shut down highway, one fire crew bothered, and one sleepless night later; we have our newest addition:

Princess Yuki, 1.8lbs of sweet & spicy 8 week old grey tabby baby

First three pics are of the night we stayed up til 6 am (5 days ago) waiting for her to crawl out of the dash. Fourth is her bonding with our other CDS delivery, Chicken. Last pic is her today, running all over the house making best friends with the other kitties.
