[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3603835, member: 15054"] I went to another state over the 4th and took 3 45's and a .22 pistol. First round shot was from the Taurus PT1911 45ACP with some of my 200gr lead swc bullets NO crimp as that smushes my lead and hurts accuracy in my other 2 45's. Well like almost always the dumb Taurus failed to get round 2 into the chamber. The edge of the case caught on an upper side of the chamber. I did not shoot it any more and took that round and stuck it into one of my my other 45's and shot it just fine. No issues except with the 1911. I am going to chamfer and roll that edge a bit and see if I can make a reliable weapon out of it. I have done some feed ramp work and that helped but I must crimp and use round nose plated or jacketed bullets. [/QUOTE]
