[QUOTE="jfloyd, post: 1707368, member: 73643"] You have to change powders for sure. Who’s parts are you using for the upper, barrel and bolt? I suspect you went cheap and are paying the price now. I don’t see where you have given any manufacturer information up to this point so I am only assuming. A 16” barrel should run a carbine length tube. It will run with a mid length but will severely limit you powder choices. If the bolt has an o-ring under the extractor REMOVE IT. If you do not have a Tromix extractor and you are using someone else’s parts like Radical. GET ONE FROM TROMIX! Once again, there were a bunch of people jumping on the big bore bandwagon that did not know what they were doing. Even Wilson Combat screwed up their first barrel extensions. Between the powder choice and unknown expertise from the manufacturer side, you are in a money and time wasting battle you will not likely win. PM me if would like to chat or if you can’t get Tony. I would truly like to help you get it running properly. [/QUOTE]
