Glock w/ Aftermarket Barrel?

Got a new Storm Lake barrel for my Glock 23. Looks good, shoots great! What do I need to know before I start reloading 40S&W for my Glock?

Is the brass that was shot from my factory Glock barrel safe to reload?

Is lead ok to shoot through the Storm Lake barrel?

Thanks!

It should do very well, but remember, you just voided your Glock warantee, should you have a mishap.

Yes! I have loaded thousand of badly Glocked brass without a problem. Some have been reloaded 20+ times.

It was OK to use in the original Glock barrel, as long as you knew the caveats. What did Storm Lake say?
