I was also shooting 6mm in 30 cal.
I've shot the gun nearing 900 times now and all suppressed other than the first 5 shots ever on the gun. Doesn't make sense to me. If anyone has an idea I'd like to hear it. I've just kept on getting it.
Yeah weird right? Mine hit the anchor brake hard enough to crack the fins. Dang near a whole bullet diameter went through the last fin in the brake. It will prob shoot just fine though, but man it looks like crap!
My initial thoughts would be your round not stabilizing at all, but winning matches and shooting quarter inch groups, that clearly is not the case. Only other considerations would be if your can worked lose, or you got a bad round that came apart.
I had a major malfunction with one of our VAPR's only being threaded on the muzzle about 3/4 the way, I was filming, my buddy shooting, sparks flew, the round came out sounding like they do on an old western movie when they ricochet, the whole nine yards... I thought the can was toast, glad it had a Ti endcap, literally no damage, parts of a copper jacket on the inside of the endcap where the round smashed into it, but that was easy to get off. I think I still have that footage, I'll look and see.
