Thanks.
The flag you see most often at Highpower rifle matches is this one from MTM:

These matches have rapid fire strings, 10 shots in 60 or 70 seconds. Rules require a chamber flag be inserted as soon as firing is complete. They do not melt or even soften as far as I can tell. Most folks are shooting ARs these days.
