I just received a Faxon barrel and it seems the chamber is too tight for my reloads. I cannot get 124gr JHP from both MG and PD to chamber at 1.125" OAL. But Winchester white box 115 and Federal 124 factory loads will plunk perfectly. My reloads will plunk in my 9mm 1911 barrel perfectly.
Other than reaming the barrel are there any other options? I've already tried going to the book minimum of 1.090 but it's still a tight fit. Can I safely go shorter than that? If I do go shorter is there any risk of feeding issues? I am open to trying a different bullet profile, I'm just not sure what will work.
Thanks for any help.
