I have recentlty picked up a new Springfield XD Sub-Compact in .40 S&W. It shoots just fine when using factory loads, but will not fully chamber otherwise reliable reloads.
After double checking the reloads for sizing problems, it dawned on me that this is the only gun that I have (and any of my shooting buddies have) that has a problem with these loads. After checking with a number of local established gunsmiths. I have found that nobody will modify the chamber to accept reloads. Springfield warns against using reloads at all in their manual...... letting out a return to the factory for a fix .
Has anyone else experienced this ? Any fixes out there ?
