[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 2329207, member: 94491"] Buffer weight/spring rate/ and gas Blick hole size are all a balanced system. If the gas hole is larger than needed-- then you'll need a heavier buffer/spring I have a 308 that uses an all plastic lightweight buffer (1 oz) and a titanium carrier-- hence the need for an adjustable gas block to limit the flow of gas back to the lighter weight components It all has to be part of a balanced system to properly work. Sometimes you'll need a bit stronger buffer spring to strip cartridges from a mag with a stiff mag spring too. It all comes into play. [/QUOTE]
