Hi:

If the ammo is too weak, and the ammo you are using is too weak, extraction and hold-open will not be reliable.

Also, if substituting the ammo doesn't solve the problem, I'd check the strength of the extractor spring. I had a weak one last year, in one of my 9mms, and it lead to a similar problem.

A little while ago, some Finnish 7.65 was available through a few distributors, in fact, Samco of Miami Florida had some the last time I checked. This ammo is within spec. and should operate your pistol properly.
