I agree 100 %
No doubt you are right. I must assume that what I said would cover just about any caliber or round fired from any auto loading pistol.
And with careful thought said what I said. I did not give and rarely will give loading spec's as to powder charges in any center fire arms. Mainly because some use arms that should not be fired at all.
There just are not too many other options when saying .45.....
I figured the crimping was cover'd very well. I added some other facts that can be an Issue when this happens. And "assumed" Both sides of the "Stove pipe"
or bullet "repositioning"... Hand gun or Tommy gun these facts would remain valid. If a .45 auto rim, then the head space thing would not apply.
After reading the question again, I am seeing some other possibilities. If that gun is shoving the bullet in the case and then not feeding, inturn standing upright and causing a stove pipe, with the action closing on the loaded round you may have a combination of things going on. (1) the mag is holding the round too long, forcing the bullet to stay too low on the feed ramp and shoving the bullet in. Try a different mag. (2) The bullet is not being held in place by the case well enough, as has been discused quite well. (3) the feed ramp and the barrel on a 1911 styled gun are not matching. The feed ramp needs to be polish (any gun).
So !!!! There can be a several issues no matter the load, caliber, gun etc. This is not a fix all answer. It was simply things to look for that may have been over looked or not known about.
