I'm having trouble finding a good reload for my wife's SIG P238. The closest I have come to a reliable reload is in the following;
-Rem brass
-CCI Small pistol primers
-3.3 Gr SR4756 (Max ld as listed in Nosler reload manual)
-100 gr FMJ
-.960 OAL
With these I get a stove pipe about once every 15 rounds, but they feed and fire every time as long as the previous cartridge gets out of the way. If I reduce the powder charge they become much more prevalent. If the cartridge is lengthened the bullets engage the rifling early and prevent the slide of closing all the way. I've trial and errored for about 100 rounds so far and just can't get it figured out. And to make things more frustrating the factory ammo, standard and self defense functions flawlessly. Any help getting a practice round that will feed, fire, and eject every time would be fantastic. Thanks everyone
