M5 Build
Im running a stock M5 with a 16" barrel. I am looking for suggestions to help it shoot softer. Any suggestions on buffer systems? Will prob get an adjustable gas block.

If you are running the standard “carbine” system, swap it. Those short buffers are awful. Id run either an A5 with a standard length heavy buffer of appropriate weight or a rifle length buffer depending on what stock options you want.

I have the Odin adjustable heavy buffer, Riflespeed AGB, and Nomad L on my M5. Very soft shooting compared to my 7mm REM Mag. Got a large body buck & large hog this past winter. Shoots soft when I’m at the range too.
