It's designed for suppressor use and I would like less gas to the face if possible. I run their Warhammer in everything with no problems.

IME, “suppressed” charging handles don’t do a lot.  They can offer a small improvement on decently balanced systems with moderate or lower backpressure cans, but if your gun is noticeably gassy suppressed, they aren’t going to offer much improvement.

A low backpressure can and/or tuning/restricting gas at the port is about the only way to make marked changes in the blowback/gassiness of a particular gun.

Of course, adjustable gas block does more, but that is not the subject here.

I have a couple on the way so we shall see. Any help is better than none.

yea i have one on a lightweight Ar, the "grip" of the charging handle is thinner than most. but still works and feels stout.
i havnt put a suppressor on that particular rifle so no idea if it helps with gas face.
