Feeding problems, pls help!

Jerry-

You might try running higher-grainage rounds, too. The original 9mm rounds were a slightly higher grainage than the standard 9mm round made today, and the toggle-lock action of the Luger was designed for this higher powder charge. Using weaker modern rounds will cause the action to not cycle all the way back occasionally, causing the feed to hang up. Try using 134-grain or higher in your loads. +p rounds should also work.

P.S. - Higher-grainage 9mm rounds aren't all that hard to come by. You just have to ask for them. Most shops will carry them.
