Today put on the Dead Air Nomad 30 can and a reclaimed Primary Arms Prism scope from another project until I figure out what to run. Also 10rd mag for when I can line up from the bench.
Still unfired at this point.
Just came in today. Super excited. 8” 300 blk.
Added dead air Xeono A1.
Hopefully get time to try it out this weekend.
Equipment to start:
16” Wilson combat barrel, carbine gas spring and weight, dead air nomad 30 suppressor, Hornady black 208gn. Ejects spent casing, will not feed next case or lock bolt on empty.
Step#2 hand load hotter 208gn. Same effects
Step#3 change from .556 metal mags to magpul .300 plastic. Same effects
Step #4 - reload 220gn berrys boolits. 7.3-8.4gn. Same effects
Step #5 - change to yellow spring and 1.7 buffer weight. Same effects
Step #6 - drill barrel gas port larger. Factory .100” drill to .110”. Same effects
Step #7 - drill barrel gas port larger. Drill from .110” to .120”. Waalaa! Success!
Will now cycle factory Hornady 208s and my berrys 220s reloads as well as lock back when empty.
Next steps and plans-
Goal is to shoot high volume with decent accuracy as economical as possible.
Will determine best accuracy with lightest load possible on the Hornady 208s, Berrys 220s, and then looking to pour my own 230s and powder coat to determine best load there.
Buy/build pistol is also on the shortlist
