[QUOTE="thefenux, post: 1786787, member: 18549"] I periodically fire off the round I've been carrying in the chamber when I go to the range. Then I'll top off the mag again when I get back home. If I've had to rechamber much, I'll use the first one out of the mag since it's been in and out of the chamber a bit two. This seems to avoid the set back problem for me. As for the crimp on defensive ammo, it won't last forever. A friend was showing me his pistol one day and apparently, he'd been using the same magazine of Gold Dot .40 S&W for a few years. After years of loading and unloading the mag when going to the range and so on, they were pretty bad. I immediately told him to dispose of them and never fire them. Especially in a .40, they looked too dangerous to fire. [/QUOTE]
