Hornady XTP bullets were diving (like the RN) and getting hung up on frame ramp every single time with both mags.
Yes, frame has a feed ramp and there a bevel on bottom of barrel.
Lots of time spent on my Dremel this weekend.
Tried Flitz as polishing compound, too slow, not aggressive enough.
Tried Clover Silicon Carbide Grease mix Grit 320, getting machining gouges out faster.
When gouges gone will try Flitz again to polish ramps.
Doubt it will ever be able to feed lead semi wadcutters. but will keep trying.
Did mange to feed one empty case from the mag out of 7. (Thank you Heisenberg)
