230 gr bayou bullets

[Grumpy's Toy]

Anyone else having problems with the 230 gr bayou bullets not ejecting properly.

I have a 1911 sig saur ttt,i've set up my 650 and ran off 10 rounds and checked them

with the barrel from the gun,they just hang up. I have no problem with 9mm bayous in my glock,

just the 230 gr.

I've used 230 gr barrys, extreme, and zeros and never had this problem.I set up the oal the same

1.250... What am i doing wrong???

I am shooting them out of several STI & S&W 1911's and a Glock 21 without any problems.

It might be your OAL...my P90 will run BB 230's at 1.260 my XDM can only handle 1.245

can you clarify what you are doing? you used the barrel as a case gauge? Or you shot them and they fail to eject after firing? Where do they hang up?

I too am not clear on your question and problem. I would help to clearly describe the problem and the load you are trying to use. 230 BBs have run fine in all my pistols. One comment though, it sounds like you want to load all bullets to the same OAL; but because each bullet type/mfg has its own characteristics (e.g., ogive & bearing surface), there is no single OAL that will work for all.

While your question is not clear, I run BB 230s @1.26 in my Les Baer with no problem. Make sure you are passing the kerplunk test in your barrel and you shoul be good.

I have 230's for my STI Trojan and they are perfect at 1.25" OAL.

You could have a short leade.
