So, I loaded up some 124 grain LRN bullets using Accurate #7 - from minimum to near maximum.

I am getting failure to reliably cycle a G26.

I don't want to swap springs.

I have Accurate #5 and #2.

Do you think the faster powder will help with reliable cycling?

How many rounds on the recoil spring. My 45 ACP started having the same problem. Replaced it and haven't had any further problems. It wasn't a Glock but could it be the same problem?

Leads bad for gloc

As a side note, Glock doesn't recommend lead for their polygonal barrels.

They're coated bullets - no leading issues.

Glock (among others) also says that shooting any reloads will void the warranty.

Clean and inspect your guns on a regular basis.

Going through my inventory, the closest thing I have to the burn-rate of Bullseye is TiteGroup.

TiteGroup worked fine with the 147 gr bullets.

I'll load some up this weekend, weather permitting.

The data I find is 5.5 to 6.5 #7 with a 124 gr lead bullet.
I have problems with mine if not above start. Does better at max. Guess that's a trick with pistols.
I can go below start with 38spl using a SP primer, lower using a SMP primer.
I'm using Remington 5 1/2 SP Primers.

Have some Federal #200 SPM but I keep those for use with my cowboy guns.
