If a magnet sticks to it fairly hard, it's 400 series SS, if the magnet does not stick, or barely sticks - 300 series SS. Post it in the PX, that's good stuff for turning or welding projects. I just had 4 discs plasma cut for $40, not including material cost ($2.00/lb.); these would have been...

I knew someone would be along shortly, LOL! Thank you, I thought about searching for it, too. That was years ago and (my understanding) was isolated to a specific time frame / batch, or possibly extenuating circumstances; I don't recall the exact details of the (in person) conversation. Also...

SAS makes good stuff. Have extensively used an older model Arbiter Ti and the stainless 308 model (heavy but quiet). Both are 9" cans. If money is no object, buy 2 or 3 different brands that will suit your needs and report back with a review of your new toys.

You could also reset your headspace a couple thousands, see how your gages fit, and then see if the ammo chambers easily. Also, did you try a few rounds from that box of ammo, or just the one? How tight is it really? Hard close, or slight friction?

Update: Gas port was previously enlarged from .072 up to .092 diameter a few years ago. Did some digging and found a couple adjustable gas blocks (AGB) - JP, Odin Works, and an unknown with an adjustable lever type arrangement which I chose due to the handguard design. Threw some 308 loads...

I hope that dude has a really good attorney! Also, the term "throat fucking" needs to be re-defined....
