If you load your own ammo go back and adjust the load. Do a ladder test.  

If you don't try some different ammo. You've altered the barrel harmonics and what you're seeing is a result of that.

I polish the contact edge (beveled edge) of all my 51t mounts to get the tightest fit on the next tooth. Should fix your problem. Pm me or Google it. Fixed my stringing problems.

Seriously though, 51t mounting system isn't as good as modern offerings
