[QUOTE="ClaynTexas, post: 1105120, member: 90987"] I'm not surprised to be honest. It seems maybe they are ported for slower powder. Opening up the gas port to .093" seemed to fix that. I ran 4064, 4895, H4895, 748, 8208, RL15, and PP2000 and it cycled perfectly with all of them and always locked the bolt back. It seemed to group pretty well with H4895 and PP2000 at mid-range loads, 1/2"-3/4". I still need to try Varget and I need to pick up some #34 primers. I would like to eliminate the primer cratering issue. I did have one pierce at max load with RL15 pushing a 130 BTSP. It's definitely not too much pressure, just an oversize firing pin hole. Thanks much for the input you have given me. [/QUOTE]
