[QUOTE="ARlife4me, post: 2916832, member: 105694"] Depends on a few things...........how much overgassed, gas system length and cartridge? Most AR15's don't have this issue, but AR10's have many. Having many different barrel manufacturers with different gas system lengths in 6.5creed I've found out gas port size solves the issue. Aero Precision barrels with rifle length gas system in 6.5creed has port size nailed down! I have 3 barrels with 3 different lengths and all have standard rifle gas length systems. None of them use an adjustable gas block and all use standard weight buffer springs and buffers (rifle and carbine). Criterion and Faxon use standard length and Proof Research use +2. All 3 of those brands are overgassed when using the same ammo shot in AP barrels (Hornady 123sst's). AP states gas port size on their site after selecting barrel. [/QUOTE]
