I reload 10mm (among others). I have never bought any 10mm ammo.
I reloaded a batch of 100 with mixed headstamp brass. 180g XTP's, 7.5 g Unique at 1.25 OAL. I plunk tested a few rounds in my DW 10mm 1911 before heading to the range. Passed test. About 3 rounds into each mag I had a failure to feed and the failed rounds did NOT pass the plunk test. Assuming this was the reason the pistol would not go into battery, I ask why. Also a few rounds would hang up on the feed ramp so they never got to chamber. Very frustrating.
I ran the 100 rounds through the dies in one sitting so shouldn't they all be the same dimensions? I know that some brass is thicker than others, but wouldn't the crimp die (separate step) even this out?
I had no trouble with these rounds in my G40, which didn't surprise me since I find that Glock bbls have "looser" dimensions.
I didn't notice any bullet setback visually. I didn't measure for it either however.
Any hints on what may be the issue?
