[Coated Bullets in Glock 22]

Mlmiller1,

 

I haven't noticed and roughness in the chamber or barrel.

I got a Mr bulletfeeder expander to try to see if would help. Does anyone know why the 40 Cal expander is so much longer than the Dillon or the 9mm expander?

I was able to run 40 rounds of the blue bullets yesterday without noticeable leading yesterday using non push though sized cases. I put an additional 60 Brazos and had noticeable leading. I guess I will keep experimenting, I still have roughly 1500 of the brazos to use up.

It a glock barrel so it is polygonal, .4021 and .3965 are the measurements of the slug I did in the barrel.

 

The blue bullets are measuring .4006 and the bazos is .4012

 

I have loaded some test rounds that have not been through the redding grx sizer and will test them tomorrow.

Dutchman,

 

Yes, I spent a hour scrubbing the lead out and could not see any residue left in the bore.

 

I will try loading some test round that have not been run through the redding push through.

 

Thanks,

Is your crimp to tight and stripping the coating off the projectile? 

EDIT: DUH, I didn't read the original Post.

 

Is the crimp die leaving a ring on the projectile itself? 

I have backed off the crimp until to where it is barely straightening the flair back out.

Guys,

 

I have been trying to load coated 180 grain bullets with sport pistol for a glock 22 gen 4 and have been having major problems with leading.

 

Tried Brazos and Blue bullets and both are leading with a mild load of sport pistol and power pistol. 

 

Checked and am not scrapping the coating off while seating, not crimping through it either.

 

Loading with a dillon 650 with dillon dies, brass is mix range brass that has been tumbled cleaned and then run through a grx push through sizer prior to running through the dillon.

 

Got any suggestions?

 

Thanks,
