I am looking to buy a H2 buffer and was looking at the one offered by Bushmaster; # 8448730-M2 Telestock Buffer - Heavy Weight for M16M4 Machine Gun.  My concern is their website provides little information on this product and I am not sure if this is a H or H2 buffer. Do any of you have this buffer and if so what is the actual weight?

Save yourself trouble and order from BCM, fast shipping and they have all weights in stock.

If you want H2 the spikes one is similar weight and uses powder, seem to offer better performance.  For slightly less you can take the weights out of your stock buffer and use the tungston powder from golf supply stores to make a buffer like the spikes.

Seems to offer better performance?  Based on what facts?

List facts here:

Anyway, since there are no facts, HERE is a great H2 buffer.  I've got their H2 and a bunch of their H3 buffers in my rifles.  Did the ST-T2 powder thing.  Than I woke up and realized there are better options.  Of the ST-T2 biffers I tried, one weighed 3.9oz, one at 4.1oz the last at 4.2oz.  There's no constistancy and an H2 or H3 will equal a softer, smoothing shooting rifle if your rifle allows for it.

Daniel Defense, Spikes, PWS, Palmetto State Armory "H2" weights are good.

Look at Palmetto state armory, Primary Arms or Aim surplus.

I've been looking for a how to on this. Or is it as simple as removing and filling? How would you assure no leakage?

The 'bumper'/plug on the end of the buffer generally fits very tightly.  If you're paranoid, a small dab of RTV silicone would provide extra insurance.
