Also, are you using this with a Rifle or CAR stock?
What buffer are you using (ESP if it is a CAR - Std, H-Buffer 9mm)
Have you considered modifying the buffer spring a little to take off some of the weight?

I would try other powder combos first but there are a couple other areas that could be changed in this system if needed...
QB,

I haven't thought about the buffer spring untill you mentioned it. I'm running my 300 whisper upper with a full length rifle stock/tube. I don't have a CAR lower but a buddy has an m4gery that I could borrow his lower to see if that helps at all. I would be interested to see if jripper is also running with a full length rifle buffer.
