Yep, it was just my own ignorance and the junk ammo I was trying to use.

Yes, I have been using setting 2 for the weaker loads. Yes, it runs the hotter ammo just fine on setting 1, it runs the 1200 fps Federal Multi-purpose perfect, the ammo I had been trying to use before posting was the Winchester Universal, those did not run very well at all.

Some how the gas port holes were completely filled with something, tried to clean it and there was no way
