I really didnt think my SASS was heavy enough so I bought a YHM Phantom for it! Suppressor is great as far as accuracy is concerned and POI shift is very minimal BUT! About every third or forth rnd fails to eject. When it runs through a mag it will not hold the bolt open on the last rnd. What would help this? Adjustable gas block? Heavier bullet weight? Hotter load? Or do I have a really heavy single shot rifle? Rather not change out the gas block if I dont have too! New to the can game so all input would appreciated!

(Functions on a 223 AR perfectly)

My SASS had a problem with over gas with my YHM QD on, it wouldn't eject every third round or so. I ended up putting an adjuustable gas block on it. My brother has an SASS barrel with a YHM QD on one of his rifles and we ended up having to drill the gas port because it wouldn't lock open on the last round but ejected fine. I haven't had both issues on one rifle but those were the solutions to each problem on 2 different rifles.

Thanks Jake, Did the Adj. gas block cure it? Which one did you use?
