I forgot to check the barrel nut and it wasnt loose but it wasnt tight either and the gap was more than it should have been and the hot gases blew off just a 1/16th maybe even 1/32 of an inch on the high side of the foward part of the cylinder all the way around....ooooooops .... may have to lok tite that barrel nut . Other than that she shot great . In this video you can see the fire escaping the gap

I don't know if I'd Loctite the barrel nut, you'd probably be asking for it.
Just get the threads good & clean, drop a dab of oil on it, then snug it up nicely. That should do the trick.

I would say that's the most sound advice any one could ever give.
In fact if there was ever a list of "Never's" number one would be:
1. Loctite the barrel nut.

A little bit of Anti-Seize on the barrel threads works wonders.

I think thats the problem , Im keeping the threads TOO well oiled and theyre backing out when I shoot ..... however since the little spot of bluing that was removed on the foward high side of the cylinder all the way around looks so uniform im almost starting to like it xD
