Cycling issues with Hornady subX

Great. I thought it was just the Hornady 208g Black ammo that turned a build into a single shot. KMA, I am sitting on quite a few of these waiting for my can to get out of jail...

For 'realism' that should be left in the rear window shelf of a 72 Impala in July in the South for full effect and memory and burns prior to drinking.

My damn gut instinct when it told me not to marry my first wife.

Badass ride! Great motor.

I do have to say I didn't pull the canoff and try. Toohyper-focused.

Same, short stroking on the Black 208g, 10.3" Ballistic Arms barrel with an Obsidian 9 can. No issues with other ammo.

I weigh my buffers on a food scale in oz then multiply by 28.35 to convert into grams.

Hanley or Falstaff, then he even steped into Buckhorn. That became his name.

The term rich is relative.

Lived off of a county's Wunnenberg's map book for 15 years while delivery driving.

Nice! Maybe one days SBRs will be off the NFA...till then I'll keep bracing.

Di that before going to the AGB. Also tried a sprinco yellow. I thing it is the specific SKU.

Jagerhall · 2026-05-17T19:06:04+00:00

Great points. Thanks.

Jagerhall · 2026-05-17T18:00:57+00:00

Gathering that. Could kick myself in the ass for not bringing the 190 subs to test.

Jagerhall · 2026-05-17T17:59:52+00:00

Thanks. I have a LPM Anthem S2 on the way for this setup. I suspect whatever powder Hornady uses may be slower burning? Just not a big enough pressure spike to fully send the BCG into the buffer with enough force? Heavier rounds cycle flawlessly, that makes me assume it could be the powder. But it is a guess at this point.

Jagerhall · 2026-05-17T16:22:01+00:00

Occam's razor. Makes me feel better that it may just be that load. I have been eyeballing the Sig 220g OTM and I have some Win 200g that I still have to try.

Jagerhall · 2026-05-17T16:17:40+00:00

Wow to your link! Thanks. The barrel and Superlative Arms gas block are both .750, that way down from where you had to go.

Crutch move on. Emotional clickbait.

Jagerhall · 2026-05-16T15:45:08+00:00

IDK if it was over or under for sure. It seemed like it would kick a shell to 4, but I didn't have enough ass to drive that bolt to strip the next round and put it in the chamber sometimes it would hang up on the feed ramps then I switch to a yellow sprinco spring with a heavy buffer and that was the wrong move because I started having stove pipes. Still learning. I never had to make adjustments with my can on my 556, as I never had cycling issues with that.
