On my first attempt to load this bullet I had a lot of failures to feed. I think the problem was my COAL of 1.272. half of the failures were in stripping the bullet from the mag and probably getting hung up on the feed ramp. Sometimes the cartridge would feed but not fully go into battery.
The cartridges were checked with a case gauge and run through a Lee FCD, so case width wasn't a problem.
Had same problem in Kimber Stainless target and Ruger P97, so throated polished feed ramp not likely a problem.
The Kimber was not cleaned before firing, but only about 50 to 100 rounds since last cleaning. The Ruger was clean.
Midway loadmap had two 200gr SWC's listed. One at COAL of 1..275 and one at 1.265.
My next batch will be loaded at 1.260 with 5.2 gr Bullseye.
Any suggestions?
What data do you use for Berry's .45 acp loads?
