9MMX19 reloading

David,

If you are not trying to put words in my mouth, I would simply suggest............. "don't"...........life is simpler that way.

My recent reloaded ammo had its problems. Showed up gradually, was really not noticeable in general shooting until my event happened. What totally caused the event to happen, lots of factors there; still to be processed by me.

I would surmise that bad ammo, ie some that would not gage properly would cause any handgun to have its ills. Autos have sensing devices to try to prevent events like I experienced, but still we see a few get out. I reckon some are never figured out fully; I am ok with that, life goes on. I am not sure factory ammo is the absolute cure all for problems with firearms, I have lost quite a few points in qualifications due to faulty factory ammo, so guess everyone has their day or troubles.

Used to be a lot of people reloaded or shot 9mm here, most of the reloaders are gone now for some reason. But thought a few lurkers might still appreciate the issues and approaches to making better ammo, and to renew practices that check tolerance if they got a bit lax like I did.............guess twas my mistake.

Don,

No one knows what short time of life is like more than me, borrowed time is so sweet..................so how I spend it with new brass or preowned brass is my own affair.
