As for the "muzzle dip", you'd have to accept that to run the A5H4, Tubb .308 spring combination. You can gain in operational span range of function going this route, but there are pros and cons.
It can help to reduce drag when using these to alter some buffer dimensions. The spring seat area of the buffer can improve by slight reduction in diameter, seating diameter length, and a shallower transition angle with a radius to that. The combination can have drag induced from the spring OD and ID areas. Changing the buffer dimensions is not a requirement, but you can reduce drag by doing so before the buffer body gets anodized.
There's more we can discuss on these if anybody is interested.
