POF 308 question

[fastford]

shot the POF 6.5 Creedmoor today, suppressed. Is it normal for the POF to get real dirty in the feed ramps and BCG running suppressed? I thought with a gas piston most or all of the blow back is eliminated?

Or do I have another problem?


first gas piston gun for me so I dont know,

That's normal. Unfortunately piston guns get dirty too when you run them suppressed. Just not as dirty in as many places as fast... Did that make sense?

Re: POF 308 question

Blowback is <span style="font-weight: bold">significantly</span> reduced with the POF piston setup than with a standard DI setup, but the rifle still gets dirty without a doubt.

I would say, for comparison's sake, that I can run my POF roughly twice as long or slightly longer than a similarly setup DI gun (caliber/bbl length/etc.) when shooting suppressed before it gets dirty to the point of needing to be cleaned due to function issues.

Fastford I shoot my P 308 suppressed all the time, yep it gets dirty in there but it will still run forever. You will be surprised how long it will accurately function.
