Hey fellas, got a question..... Let me start at the beginning. My father has a brand new taurus tracker titanium 6" barrel .357. I have a Ruger sp101 snubby. I reload my own ammo....Nothing hot or apast book max load. First time shooting my dads new pistol he put in lead 38 specials, shot great. Second time we put in some target grade nickel plated .357 reloads, they were hard to eject out of the cylinder on his pistol after firing. We cleaned the cylinders thinking it was from the 38 lead bullets. Tried it again and it did it again, but not all cylinders this time. We put in some heavier magnum rounds and they didn't do it at all. Just seemed to kind of come and go, sometime hard to get out sometimes easy, nickel always did it, but the brass was intermittent. The brass and nickel ejects fine out of my pistol. The target loads were 140 grain Speer HP with 7.1 gr of hp-38. The heavier loads where 158 grain hornady with 15 gr of h110. Do you guys have any ideas why it was hard to eject? Does it have something to do with the titanium, or maybe just tighter cylinder chambers? It was a sweet shooting pistol other than the brass not ejecting. Thanks in advance
