How hard is a fully gassed ejection on the brass? My setup will be a 16" AA Mid-Length barrel with a yhm-9384 gas block. Nitrided carrier & AA hard use bolt. I will be punching paper using PF & Hornady ammo and will be learning to reload via a friend with probably 50yrs experience reloading - he is a safe reloader and is not going to try to push it just "to get a little more", he is very conservative. But this will be a new caliber in a new platform to him. I plan on posting the powders, primers & bullets up once I have the list complete - been suffering from migraines for quite a bit lately but want to get the list together. I just want to make sure the brass is kept prime as it is a bit pricey. Will be using bullets lighter than 130gr, probably the 123 AMAX will be the heaviest (depending on accuracy).
But if putting on a $100 adj gas block means protecting the investment in brass (believe Lapua - PF Ammo claims this but also says it is AA stamped too, which I thought was Hornady brass now - can anybody clear this up) it is a no brainer.
Are any gas blocks better than others? I have seen Odin & SLR to be pretty popular.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
Bob
