Shot 50 today with NO failures. I changed two steps of my reloading process ( less flare/bell and less crimp ) and took off the backstrap to get a better grip.

I still dont know if I limp wristed before or if it was ammo related but Im leaning more towards limp wrist.

Thanks for the replies guys

Here the deer, bear and elk seasons all overlap.

Im not yet good enough to take it as a primary weapon but next year I think I'll try. Got my 200 grain XTP's moving at 1250 and with factory sights it seems to be near zero at around 50 yards. Once I can reliably hit a 5 inch circle at 50 yards while shooting without a rest I will take it.

I loaded some virgin brass with 200xtp's over 8.4grns 800x, cci300 to an OAL of 2.60 with a light lee factory crimp.

Out of thirty rounds two failed to extract, they got about halfway out of the chamber. ALL of the rounds were measured with a caliper AND Wilson check gauge prior to shooting. I was able to pull them free fairly easily.

Any ideas what happened? I have NO pressure signs anywhere... Brand new Glock 20 with exactly 90 rounds through it.

Hello all,

This is my first post here. Planning on getting a G20 next weekend. I plan on LOADING my own ammo, but not "reloading" it. Meaning I will make my own ammo with virgin brass and shoot it one time and one time only.

Im looking to get 200 grain XTP's to 1200-1300 FPS with some 800x powder. I plan on getting a 6 inch barrel for it and since I wont be reloading Im wondering if I should be concerned with the glock smiles? I prefer to stay OEM Glock and get their 6 inch barrel but if Im not sure if I have to worry about hot loads splitting cases ( the above load being the hottest im interested In )

What do you guys think?

Also, while Im here bugging you. Anyone have any pet 800x loads for me to achieve my goals set above?

Thanks in advance
