[QUOTE="Longshot284, post: 1616131, member: 101195"] It’s possible it’s not “over” pressure. Depending on your gas system and the propellant Hornady uses in the Black ammo - if there’s enough gas to start unlocking the bolt, the actual max pressure may be well within SAAMI, just a timing issue. Exacerbated by a suppressor I’m sure. If your gas block is adjustable you could back it down a notch. Or possibly something with buffer configuration would slow things down. I would call Hornady Monday and explain the situation. They have been great to work with in my experience and should start a return for you to get the ammo back and pressure test it. That way, even if it tested fine, you’d know for sure what the pressure was. Just throwing in another 2 cents - I know gas guns can be tricky sometimes! [/QUOTE]
