Round II,
Purchased a new spring and a Spikes Tactical type 2 heavy buffer. It cured about 80% of the problem. I am still having problems with stove piping, the last shell not bring eject. Per Montanas instructions, I tried Hornady 123gr Amax, and my reloads. Same story for both. At powder loads above 28.5gr CFE-223 I am getting pressure sign. Above 28.5 flattened primers, the shells are being tossed at the 1 o'clock position, and a small portion of the brass is getting mangled. I have contacted the barrel maker. I am going to look at a new adjustable gas system. I should have just spent the money on an already built upper. A2
