Default Glad you got it....

This points to that fact that compact or subcompact guns have little tolerance for variations in ammo. Being primarily for SD, loading a cartridge to SAAMI specs isn't a guarantee that it is going to work well. For SD a round that's PROVEN to work in THAT GUN is vitally important.

RN being usually the most universally reliable bullet, I loaded those smallball jobs and expected them to work no problem. It ended up taking about a month to get to the bottom of the problem. Like I said, even loading at the recommend AOL I immediately ran into bad trouble, prying cartridges out of the chambers. Not a fun way to shoot.
