Do 30's have more fun?

I took my 30 caliber Ã¢??23 Commercial out the other day to shoot for the first time. I bought it from Ralph Shattuck, and it is a Ã¢??clean one ownerÃ¢?Â type with very low mileage. I suspected that it would function wellÃ¢??and it did. I was using GT reworked magazines and Winchester factory ammo. The gun operated flawlessly during the entire shooting sessionÃ¢??which was over a hundred rounds. This confirmed my thinking that the 30Ã¢??s have an easier time chambering their ammo because the bottlenecked cartridge has more Ã¢??wiggle roomÃ¢?Â to get into the chamber. So my survey question to the membership is this: in your experience, have your 30 caliber Lugers functioned more reliably than your 9mm Lugers?
