The best ammo I've been able to use in my byf42, is no longer made, but it is Winchester with a 95gr. JSP. It's OAL = 1.065. I used this stuff in two different byf42, and they both were having trouble with other ammo. If you saw the video of my gun firing eight shots without a problem, that is the ammo I'm using. I'm almost out and I'm hoping to find a replacement. I didn't realize that it was no longer available till just recently. I bought enough to last when I discovered how well it worked. I've been reading these length recommendations and it makes me wonder. I even have an article that recommends 1.170 to 1.180 OAL. My thought on why these work, is their light weight and nice taper down to a small flat point makes it chamber better. I'm hoping to find another bullet with this profile to test. Just might be the magic bullet...
