With any magazine, and three different length cartridges. Everything from Win. white label at 1.160 OAL, to my much shorter hand loads, 1.073 And accurately!

FNorm:

I have no doubt you fired them accurately, but could you fire a full magazine of 8 reliably?

For round nose you should strive for an OAL of 1.169 to 1.173,
for truncated cone, 1.15.

I also own a BYF 41, and these are really nice pistols.
