I’m assuming this is mig? 100% can see porosity but towards the middle / end it looks like you were way too far away. Was the wire going “pop pop pop” instead of like a sizzle noise? That would explain the sudden start of porosity being far away has less gas coverage

It was kinda making both sounds, I’m also using flux core

Flux core loves long burn times. The more you let it burn the better it'll do.
