My opinion, hydro buffers don't provide any advantages on semi rifles other than stressing your charging handle every time you pull it to the rear. I've tried the endine's and went back to h2's and spikes heavy buffers.
I second this opinion.
I disagree. I have an Enidine buffer in both of my ARs, neither is full auto, and they both produce a significant reduction in muzzle movement over the std recoil system. I shoot my A4 rifle at steel out to 300yds using a 12x scope. I paint the steel white with a small, 2" red aimpoint. With a std recoil system, the muzzle movement is enough to move the FOV of my scope off of the target. With the Enidine, I can watch the round strike the plate at 300yds. I get a similar improvement with my 9x scope on my carbine.
That's what I bought them for and they do the job very well. In addition, I've had both for almost 5 years and many thousands of rounds and both still perform as if they were new. If you want to 'quiet' your muzzle movement during firing on your semi-auto AR, the Enidine buffer is a great choice.
