Hello, need some troubleshooting
Finally got out to shoot my new 6mm ARC build
First test was to adjust the Seekins adjustable gas block.
I followed direction from Seekins: start with adjustment screw 1 turn off all the way in. Shoot 1 round only in magazine. Repeat until rifle will lock back on empty magazine…..
1st shot didn’t eject
Adjusted 1/2 turn
2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th wouldn’t eject each with additional 1/2 turn.
6th through 12 ejected but still not enough to lock back……ran out of adjustment.
I’m running a rifle length buffer tube, spring and rifle buffer 5.4 oz
Proof research 18” barrel with rifle +1 gas tube
What to try next? Lighter buffer?
