ScottRiqui,

Thanks for the post.

I am considering the OAL in terms of room for powder burn, and posts that mention seating bullets too deep can increases PSI beyond safe levels. The inverse implies that too much OAL decreases PSI and FPS.

If the only issue is how it feeds, 1.157 - 1.164 worked well in my Glock 17 with the 14 rounds I fired.
