I have run this S&B through my full size 9mm's and it is hotter than the WWB, Federal Champion, and Speer Gold Dot (not +P). Feels hotter than the Winchester Nato loads also. But back to the Plus.
I looked it over to see why it is a little loose shooting, and consistently low. The locking lugs on the barrel appear to be the culprit. They are tapered on both sides. The lugs in the slide are square shouldered. The barrel seems to be made this way. It has less than 500 rounds through it. There is no lip, ridge, or damage that can be felt. The fact that both sides of the three lugs have the taper should rule out lug peening.
Does anyone else have a barrel with lugs cut like this? I may look for another barrel, but finding one may be impossible. Parts, even original mags are scarce. Every other locking system. I have seen has square shouldered lugs on both the slide and barrel.
