During the strip and clean suggested by Ithacaartist above, check very carefully for any cracks - anywhere.

If all looks good shoot ONE ROUND and check for pressure, there are multiple posts about where/how to check for too much pressure both the gun and the fired case.

I do not know the history of your ammo but do not shoot reloads, unless you have loaded them yourself.

PPU works fine in .30 Lugers
