Had fouling issues w my bushmaster using Pc bullets w 40.0 gr imr 4198 and my 280 gr has checked bullets .452 sized so I knew after compliplating it it was bc I was pushing too hard
Aa9 27.7 gr 1 1/2 inch 50 yards no fouling
Aa9 28.7 gr 1 1/2 inch 50 yards no fouling
Aa9 29.7 gr 1 1/4 inch 50 yards some foul
Aa9 30.7 gr 1 inch 50 yards back to the fouling
GLFA upper 18 inch all functioned but my 50-50 alloy can’t handle the pressures above 35k and it’s apparent. My man pat Murphy told me bet it’s your alloy and I’m inclined to agree. In case you were curious they use a 1-24 twist w a mid length gas system
