| I just recently finished my 6.5 grendel build, and I seem to be having a problem with short stroking. I am using a Sabre barrel, which has a mid length gas system, and a JP stainless bolt carrier. I am not sure if the problem is the gas block not being properly aligned with the gas port in the barrel. Is there a good way to check without removing the gas block? Any help would be appreciated. |

Quoted:
There will be alot of brunt powder around the gas block. Check your gas rings too hope this helps No problems either of those areas, I am more worried that maybe I got the Gas block in the wrong position and am pinching off the gas? The major problem is that when the bolt cycles it isn't picking up the next round, but when hand cycled it will. I guess maybe a magazine problem? |

See if bolt is locking back on empty magazine. Also, if or when you check your gas block, you should be able to tell if its right from where the barrel and gas block have gotten smoked. Brett |
