That's some nice shooting. What powder were you using and how much? If you don't mind me asking.

This was with Factory Hornady loads. I will try to work up some loads in a bit once I get caught up on work. Have some interesting pills coming in from Lehigh Defense.
I will weigh the barrel when I tear into it to figure out the cycling problem. It is the light profile .750 gas block. Figured since it was such a short barrel I would not need any extra meat and was going for a reasonably light build.

Nice! I was expecting those velocities from your pistol. I think your' gonna really like that gun. Are you going to SBR in the future or hunt with it as a pistol? 'Cuz if your looking for a nice pistol scope, I have some nice ones. I need rifle scopes at this point.
Those are some great groups with that 1-4. You don't have do many bugs to work out.

Planning on hunting but will be doing the SBR when I have a little more spare $$. I want a little more magnification with this one than most pistol scopes offer. The scope on it works ok just want a little more. Will use it as is for a while.
Maneuverability and weight are the main reasons I build these pistols. Especially since I will be using a can.
I took it apart today looking at the extraction problem. Decided to try the easiest thing first. I pulled the lower off my other pistol and swapped it out. The buffer tube is about 2" longer. It did not extract. Next I took out the bolt and the extractor looked odd. It seemed loose unlike the 556 I have in the toolbox. Took out the extractor and the pin holes had wallowed out. Called the Co. and new one is on the way. I also ordered an additional 5 to have on hand. I did happen to have a spare, installed and it extracts perfectly.
Now to decide on final optics.
