Pardon me for butting in. I've got a Mauser made P08 made in 1942. The firearm is in excellent condition, all matching serial numbers, bright bore with only light holster wear in the usual places.
I'm new to handloading and have had a problem with two batches of hand loaded ammunition. The hand loads are 115 gr FMJ RN bullet, 5.3 grains of Winchester WSF using a new Starline case and CCI primers. The fired case does not fully eject from the chamber and the toggle partially pushes a new round from the magazine that jams under the partially extracted case.
I've been using Fiocchi 124 gr FMJ Truncated Cone ammunition as a control. These do not fail to extract, although I occasionally get a "stovepipe", which is easy to clear.
I've been very careful in measuring the case dimensions of the 9mm hand loads, which cycle flawlessly through my Glock 17 and Browning Hi Power.
Is it possible the powder is too fast? Does anyone have a good hand load to recommend?
