[QUOTE="ARlife4me, post: 2328498, member: 105694"] So you built it yourself? I have several 6.5CM barrels of quality manufacturers (proof, cbi, faxon, ap and bsf) and all but 1 takes a lot of tinkering for best function. AP has been the best even with standard rifle length gas system. I have 18 to 22" barrels from them, but they are heavy. If you (with empty mag inserted) pull back on the chargehandle and bolt catch automatically holds the bolt back the you know it is at least going back far enough to catch. Put 2 to 3 rounds in the mag , fire and then check stroke(short, double feed or other). Gas block might not be aligned over the gas port on the barrel(100% or partial aligned). Wilson s well known and makes good products, so quality isn't an issue! It might not have a large enough gas port? What buffer tube do you have? Check free length and count number of coils. Is it a +2 gas system or standard length? PM me for more info or just post more here is fine? Inquiring minds might want to know? I'll give more suggestions after I have more info. [/QUOTE]
