Some barrels have looser chambers and would allow for a wider variety of ammo to fit them well. Alpha SS may have tighter chambers.after the couple week pause and looking at this with a fresh mind my guess is Im highly doubtful Alpha would send me another barrel with the same issue....
So that thought makes me rethink its the Fiocci ammo.
@Reno I think you were right here.... this is one of the Fiocchi rounds that jammed the old Alpha barrel. This still sits high in the new Alpha barrel. So I colored it up with a sharpie and plunked it in, pressed it down. Had to pry it out... it looks like the ogive is wedging into the lands or whatever part of the chamber that is past the case rim.
I wonder if I was to pull this bullet (not fire it) if the case would drop flush into the new Alpha barrel chamber. Would that prove its the ammo?
But then why would this one fit in my Sig 9mm barrel and the Swenson barrel...?
