ok, so I am frustrated.
shooting my Glock.. have been reloading for it for 2 years or so.
Then, just recently I got a Dillon press, and switched to this press from the old one.
so here's the problem:
my wife and I are shooting the exact same ammo, and I get jams almost every mag. She is shooting a P99 and it functions flawlessly.
the problem with my Glock is that when the slide comes back to chamber the next round, it almost closes, but not quite... JAM.
the same bullets, primers and powder charge are being used as I have been for the last two years.
it jams so tight, that I have to place the gun against a table or other solid object and slam my one hand against the other hand holding the gun.. this allows me to "cycle" the round out of the chamber.
I cannot force it forward, nor can I pull the slide back with "normal force".
I checked my casings and they are all within .001 of what it says for trim lenght, and the bullets are seated at 1.100. I am using carbide dies and applying a taper crimp....
At first I thought maybe it was a powder issue.. but then theat would cause it not to eject the last fired round. Then I thought maybe its my recoil spring, but then this doesnt account for me not being able to push the round in the chamber ( helping it along a little).
its a 3rd Gen glock that is about 3 years old.
any ideas?
and I have never had this problem before until this last batch on the Dillon. 1000 rounds of "piss me off".
