My 16" CAR from Model 1 sales came with a .125" gas port. I added an adjustable gas tube to tune the gas down for supersonic loads. It worked well for me and was much easier to install than the JP...

I called Noveske yesterday...they didn't seem the least bit interested in building me a barrel that wasn't on their website. A little disappointing as Pac-Nor as them listed as the source for AR...

Update

Made it out this afternoon with a new batch of loads. Mounted a Bushnell 3-9x40 off my 10/22 to a YHM riser mount and shot some groups at 50 yds. Based on my last outing, I upped the AA9 charges...

.300 Whisper Feed Ramps

I've read a few places of folks modifying their AR15 feed ramps for proper feeding and curious what "proper" feed ramps actually are for this cartridge.

The screw has a non-standard "tit" on it. I'll get another pic for you. But it is certainly a "tit" tip that obscures about 2/3 of the gas flow.

Unfortunately, I haven't found anyone selling...

Oops, too late! :D

Just kidding, I was reading that seemed to be where Noveske barrels were ported and that a number of folks ended up around .110" for the 10" barrels. Reckoning pressure vs....
