I have a YHM FF TUBE the light weight one with the end cap that screws in. Everything went on great but when the endcap is screwed on it rubbs the barrel allot enough that I can shoot without it and then install it and my point of impact changes greatley. Do you have any suggestions.
Thanks

The end cap is a cosmetic piece, so you should just remove it. However, it certainly sounds like something (tube, barrel nut, etc.) isn't installed square.

If the barrel is rubbing on the inside of the cap then you might want to get the other cap with the larger barrel hole.

the end cap with the bigger hole sounds like the ticket if you have it for cosmetic purposes. The YHM site says it is suppose to "Support" the barrel so it has to technically touch the barrel. So if you are using it for what it is meant to be used for, leave it on and don't remove it once it is zeroed.

Yes, you need the 9484B end cap. From what I've understood, the end caps are really intended to a.) keep larger derbris from getting into the forearm & b.) reduce barrel deflection to a minimal amount if put under stress.
