I loaded my first 100 .45 ACP and shot them in my Kimber Custom II today. I got 6 FTFs out of the 100 and about 4 more I had to push the slide in the last 1/8" to fully feed them.
Here is what I loaded:
lasercast 230g LRN OAL 1.260 4.7g W231 Mixed headstamp brass
I got the data from Lasercast.
All cases fit in the case guage just fine.
All cleaned and polished.
I measured OAL on every round.
The powder loads were weighed every 10 or so.
Is it possible the OAL is too long for my Kimber? Too short? Any help?
Winchester's load data shows a max OAL of 1.275
Thanks,
Aaron
