BOOMSTICK

Thanks for all of the input. My loads are not subsonic. I already have the low mass carrier and captured spring. I picked them up cheap and thought I would try them. If they dont work then no harm done. I will just sell them. What about bolt bounce. I have never experienced it that I know of. With the increased forward speed of the bolt and not having the extra weight on the carrier to you run an increased risk of the bolt bouncing out of battery?

Thanks for the replies. I understand what your saying about the heavy buffer. I also have a jp captured buffer spring that is new. I havent fired this rifle yet with the low mass carrier and the captured spring. The only adjustable gas blocks I have used are jp's and I have had very good luck with them. I just wanted to see how yall felt the carrier and spring would work with the suppressor.

Hello everyone this is my first post! I am really into distance shooting. I have been shooting for a while and have decided to change my tactics a little. I have shot a 308 gas gun for about 6 years now and have had very good luck with them. I have since shot out a 24" stainless heavy barrel and have decided to start over with my 308. I recently purchased a 18" jp supermatch with enhanced bolt. It has a midlength gas tube. I am going to be running a YHM 7.62 phantom titanium suppressor. The gun has been built with dpms upper and lower receivers. I have always ran adjustable gas. My question is I am recently aqquired a low mass bolt and captured spring from jp. I have never had any reliability problems with the factory carrier or buffer/spring setup. How will using the low mass carrier and captured spring work with the suppressor. I know I will have to turn the gas pressure down. I just have reservations taking weight off the carrier. It seems like with the suppressor and the light carrier the bolt will be traveling at supersonic speeds even with the gas turned down. I run my loads very hot. What is everybodys thoughts on this. Thanks good to be here
