I just started reloading 40 caliber with once fired brass for my glock 22. I worked up my load and test fired them with no problems. I came home and loaded up 80 more and set them aside while I loaded some .45's which I needed for the weekend.
During this time I read some threads about how a should always be used because of the Glock bulge and other things. I ordered a Wilson case gage from Midway and when it got in I checked out my reloads. Of the 80 reloads only 20 passed. Figuring it was because of the bulge I sent away for the Lee bulge buster.
While that was being shipped, I thought I would check out the rounds with my barrel. My Glock has a Lone Wolf replacement barrel which is supposed to be match(?). Guess what, all of the rounds went in place without any forcing. Just dropped right in place. To double check I used the barrel from my Sig 229. Once again no problems.
What is going on here. Are my barrels oversized or is the gauge wrong?
Any suggestions?
