HI, I'm new to THR, but had to join because of the wealth of information I've found. Yesterday at the range, a buddy and I experienced failures to eject with plated semi-wadcutter .45 ACP we fired in our auto-loaders. I used an XD-45 Tactical and he used a SIG P220. My mags had no dimple on the follower. Two of his mags had a dimple on the follower and fired SWC just fine. But when he used mags without a dimple on the follower, the gun had FTE the first round. Both guns never jammed before with JHP and FMJ. We concluded the dimple made the difference and guessed it helped overcome the angle of the ramp of each gun. What's your take on this? Thanks.
