Just got in from the backwoods, shot 80 rounds of 124 gr FMJ loaded with 4.3gr of Unique. Really was an improvement in the 1918 Erfurt but seemed a little weak for the P-1. This was my first loading experience, I can guarantee there have never been 80 rounds of 9mm so carefully loaded. Next time will go a little easier. No misfires, two misfeeds in the Luger,no other malfunctions.
I used a case length of .741, next time I'll use a shorter case with the same load & bullet and see if it stops the jamming.
