re: Sig MCX won't eject

I don't give a sailing shite what you or Vickers thinks. Neither you, him, or Reed Knight have seen the research conducted with instrumented rifles to measure and characterize bolt-face forces while these rifles are firing. The research was conducted specifically to find out what happens when these rifles are over-lubricated and nothing good comes from the practice. It's actually common sense why these rifles (any firarm except some protype Garands actually) aren't supposed to be run wet, that excess oil gets into the chamber, that interferes with how the brass "grips" the chamber as it obdurates during the firing phase. That grip transfers most of the rearward force of the cartridge case to the chamber instead of the bolt-face. Oil away that grip and the bolt goes from seeing somewhat less than 3,000lbf to nearly 6,000lbf. You just explain to me what you think is beneficial about that and how it impacts the fatigue life of the bolt. In combat, a wet rifle with the potential to have a bolt fail is one thing, that extra force allows the rifle to keep cycling even full of grit. Acceptable risk when considering what happens when facing incoming fire and no way to return it. None of you are running these rifles on two-way ranges though, not even Vickers these days. Lubricate according to the -10, there's a good reason why the Army explains exactly how much oil and where.
