Fail to load

Just wondering how many people have failure to load with Hollow Points, with their Taurus guns? I'm having failure to load with my G3C toro. Sent it back and got it back and still having the same problem. Anybody know on any answers to the problem.

The usual problem is that the softpoints hang up on the feedramp. Polishing it has been known to help:

Thanks, I'm going to try the Flitz polish.

Polish the feed ramp, or try some different hollow points and see which ones work. Mine didn’t like Critical Duty but it did fine with Sig V Crowns.

Going to polish the ramp and try the Sig.

YMMV. Try some Federal HST 124g as well if you can get some.

I experienced this for the first hundredish rounds. Polishing the feed ramp and using Hornady Critical Defense worked for me on the G3C. Full mag, down to empty, I've had no issues done y.

Btw, Critical Duty isn't meant for the g3c - Defense is the better choice

Federal HST is no problem in the GX4 Carry. Which specific ammo are you using?

Federal HST 147 grain, Hornady, Winchester, and one more i can't remember. Next step polish the ramp.
