After I saw the nick the first time, I was careful during the next hand-cycling to let the round 'dribble' out of the ejection port. It's definitely getting the 'nick' during feeding.

I'll try an OAL of 1.26", just to see if it makes a difference. I probably won't invest much more time with it, though - this is just a range gun, and as long as it continues to feed 230 gr LRN reliably, I don't mind if they get a little nick on them on their way into the chamber. I'll just save the 185s for a different gun.

Thanks so much for all the replies.
