The detachable magazine on my PHR will not feed the last (bottom) round. The bolt pushes the cartridge forward until the cartridge starts tilting up then the bolt rides over the top of the cartridge. Always the bottom cartridge never the first 2 on top, which always feed perfectly. Looking for help on how to fix this. And an explanation of why only the last round and always the last round. Thanks

Also, H-S said bend open the feed lips on the front of the box. Bend a little then try it then bend more and try it again, and so on.

I'd change the mag spring first to see whether that fixes the problem.

The problem can be a combination of both a weak spring, and having the feed lips a little out of whack. I use a lot of the HS Precision magazines on rifles I put together and have yet to hear of a spring issue, but anything is possible. While you're waiting for a replacement spring, follow HS Precisions advice.
