[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3079557, member: 5412"] Not sure about the long stroke, but AMT had issues with the gun cycling so fast that the gases were lost to cycle the action. Their remedy was to stipple the chamber allowing the brass to "grip" the chamber long enough in milliseconds for the gas pressure to build and cycle the action. My pistol shows the stippling after firing, and although I thought it was a mag issue, I bought some after market mags and they did no different. I've tuned a couple of those mags back and forth a dozen times and it gets no better or worse. The .17HMR was experiencing the same issues in semi-auto rifles. I saw Savage put a very large charging handle on their rifles. I suspect that is what they are using to slow the cycle down to build pressure in the chamber, but that is total speculation on my part.
