The schuster gas plug is what all the CMP guys told me to run.
Thanks CJ and capbyrd, do you know if the instructions are specific enough for a given load? Or are you "experimenting"? The Schuster has 4 gas ports, I'm assuming from wide open to standard M1. I was just curious if it covers a setting for 168-187gr and 187-220gr...
I would hate to try a 180gr round, and make my best "guess" on how open the gas valve is, and have something "break".
