I'm going to set up a new belt for single stack... What mag pouches are preferred.. Appreciate any input !

Guys, just wanted to give an update here and to thank you all for your comments.. This mixed lot of brass that I ordered online had maybe 50% starline brass in it.. I was happy !!!! Didn't believe that it could be causing my issues.. I've had excellent luck with it in the past ---- but never any that had been subjected to super high pressure.... I'd bet a few nickels that Sarge hit the nail on the head.. The brass surely must have been fired in a 9mm MAJOR open gun... I resized some in a Redding carbide die I had on the shelf.. It was better then when I ran it through the Dillon but still very stiff as I lowered the Dillon handle all the way.. I have a lathe so I stepped out and took .030 of the face of the RCBS shell holder and readjusted the Redding die.. Helped but it's still not happy.. Got another batch of brass from another vendor, mixed headstamps and all my trouble went away.. My conclusion, perhaps in error, is that brass fired in a 9mm Major open gun is trash... At the very least, this brass was exposed to extremely high pressure... Again, thanks for your help..

Using a DAA 20 round case gauge.. The 2% is those that don't fall free of their own weight... This in the .40 cal.

I'm using Hornady one shot lube ----- maybe not enough ?? Bought the brass online, all yellow brass, several different headstamps, but I haven't tried to isolate it by brand yet.. That's next.. There is lots of Starline in this batch, it's not the problem.. Could have been fired in an open gun... What's a U die ?

I've loaded a lot of .40 on a Dillon 550 but run my range brass through the Redding G RX die first.. Works well my reject rate is just a couple per hundred.. Just started loading for the 9 to shoot some production.. Have some once fired range brass.. Some in noticeably bulged in the lower half of the case, Glocked ? Anyway it doesn't run well through the Dillon, requires way too much pressure on the press handle to go in the size die -- Dillon dies all around. So, the question is: what's the best fix for this.. Is there a better source of brass? A G RX die, haven't seen it listed anywhere.. All the folks that load for 9 surely can't be running this kind of brass through there presses on a regular basis... Any help would sure be appreciated..

I'm an ex benchrest shooter and am aware of several venders that cater to that crowd.. Are there a few venders that pistol shooters use for their supplies, powder, optics, parts, etc..?

Since there are no comments I will conclude this ''thread''... I have talked to Glock and C-More, twice... I bought this pistol with the intent of using the RTS2.. Fellas, don't make the same mistake I did. This combination just won't work.. The sight is too long for the cut in the slide by almost a tenth of an inch and the #3 Glock adapter plate will in no way fit on the bottom of the RTS2 sight, nor will any of the other supplied adapter plates.. I can and will return the sight, however, I am stuck with a pistol that won't accommodate the sight I would have liked.. I am a Glock fan and REALLY like the 35 but if I had known I wouldn't be able to use this sight I wouldn't have paid the extra bucks for the MOS version.. Buyer be warned..

I have really ejoyed the forum for quite a while, a long time lurker.. I have a problem and am wondering if any of you have encountered the same issue. Recently bought a Gen4 35.. I had other .40s and a Dillon set up for the .40 so stayed with it.. Anyway, it's a MOS version and, of course, I wanted to explore red dots. I wound up buying a C-More RTS2.. The pistol and the sight aren't a happy pair. The mortise milled out in the G35 slide is 1.935'' long. The footprint of the C-more with the pic adapter removed for direct mounting is 2.01''. The sight won't sit down in the cutout, it's too long --- or the cutout is too short.. What's more the #3 mos adapter that called for with the Cmore doesn't mate up with the bottom of the C-More, not even close.. Nor with any of the other adapter plates.. I called both companies yesterday with no joy yet.. Is there a remedy that I'm not seeing? Any help would sure be appreciated ! JPB
