I polish most of the ramps of reworked shooter Lugers. It is also important to have a strong magazine spring. That round doesnt have much time to get into alignment. The majority of feed related jams are due to weak mag springs. Polishing the feed ramp can help feeding AND a more reliable closing because less energy is required to drag the bullet across the ramp. It should not be done by those not familiar with the process as angle changes can result.
