Marauder SAM Baffle strike.

Doing a little target shooting out back, fired 10 shots, but only counted 8 holes. Ok, 2 doubles, great right?

Next mag, first shot did not even hit the 4X4 cardboard target holder, 4 out of the next 9 were fliers, 5 hit the target. (50 yds)

up until now, this rifle has been very reliable, and accurate. So I start looking at the breach o-ring, looks ok, look at the baffles, and they are destroyed. 

Seems I had a baffle strike, why? I can only guess, but I'll start with possible user error. I wonder if it's possible to have this happen if a pellet is loaded backwards, I can't think of any other reasons why it might happen.

So now the search for replacements, anyone know of good quality baffles that will work in the M-rod? I've found some on ebay, but not much luck anywhere else.
