This is my post on another board. I am at wits end with this damn CZ. My G19 will feed em nonstop, but I don't want to run reloads through my Glocks, due to the company strongly advising against reloads in their firearms.

Are you using Dillon dies or somebody else?

These a lead round nose and not FMJ?

If they are Dillon dies are you using the correct seating stem?

Dillon dies
Plated Lead Round Nose
Of the two seating stems I am using the conical shapped stem that fits the bullet best.

They are leaving a mark near the top of the bullet from the seating die?

Or they are not feeding correctly in your CZ?

You could call Dillon in the morning. They could help you.

Before you call Dillon, one quick question. Since you are reloading lead bullets are you cleaning the plug out every 100 or so rounds? Probably need to do this especially if you are lubing them with a heavy lube.

It will throw the OAL off long and short for no reason. Frustrating as hell too.

Even if you do decide to shoot reloads out of your Glock in the future, NEVER shoot lead through your Glock.

Unless it has an aftermarket barrel that has something other than the polygonal rifling.

No reloads in my Glock, I am also aware of the No lead in the polygonal rifling.

No lube used, Carbide dies and Copper plated bullets.

The die is leaving a ring at the top of the bullet from the "vent" in the dillon seater, but that is not my concearn right now, the bullets are getting a rub mark as the jamb at an angle in the chamber.

What brand of Plated Lead bullet?

I loaded 1,000 X-Treme's and found that the lead was soft and the plating thin. The result was almost anything marked the bullet. I also found that in my CZ (a CZ75 SP-01) I would experience a jam caused by the copper plating litterally sliding off the lead and forming a wrinkle at the case mouth. I never determined the cause because I quit using X-tremes. I went to Montana Gold with a solid jacket.

I have shot over 10,000 of the MG's in the last year and not a single issue. No more plated for me.

EVERY company warns against reloads in their guns.

That said, I know several shooters who fire thousands of reloaded rounds a year through Glock pistols. They're VERY careful and don't use crappy-found-on-the-ground range brass (which should be SOP anyway).

If your Glock eats that load, and you're a good reloader, go for it.
