[QUOTE="CaptnC, post: 1933465, member: 101755"] cohunt, Yes those are after the gas block was installed. I had the exact same problem with pressure signs on the brass with both the 10.5 barrel and the 16" upper. I sold the complete 16" upper because it was not accurate with the can installed. Plus I had pressure signs. That upper had a Osprey piston system. Bought the 10.5" complete upper. I have not shot it without the can but one thing I've noticed the ammo loaded H335 is the only ammo that has shown pressure signs. I also have ammo loaded with Benchmark 107gr TMK that runs just over 2900fps out of my 24" Grendel. I shot several of these without any pressure signs. I also shot some of the "hunting" ammo I have for my 18" and 20" with 123 SST with Benchmark without pressure signs. I had 5 rounds left of a last attempt to get the 120 GMX loaded with 8208...it shot easily good enough to hunt with. First barrel I have that shot those bullets decent. Still no pressure signs. Crazy part the velocity of all ammo shot was all around 2200fps. Lastly, no I have not checked the bolt but the company I bought the upper from build a lot of 6.5 Grendel's so I feel fairly confident they used the right bolt. The 120 TAC-X bullets loaded with H335 is shooting very accurately... .5 MOA at 2200fps Barrel seems to like the bullet, I plan to load some with a different powder when I get back from the hunt this weekend. We leave tomorrow! [/QUOTE]
