Red locktite for the win. Three weeks now...... Can't hardly tell it's there once you wipe off the excess.

Did you really put locktite on a round, in the chamber of your weapon?
Troll threads (which I PRAY this is) belong in GD. Not here.
Riding the slide forward on your weapon is also a completely acceptable practice to load ammunition multiple times. On every pistol I own, you can easily tell if you are even a hair out of battery. There is nothing unsafe about it. Is it common practice to load at the range like that? No. That ammo only gets loaded once.
Who said I was worried about pressure spikes?
You. When you started this thread. The whole point of avoiding bullet setback is to avoid catastrophic pressure increases.
Ditch your locktite round, before you either gum up your chamber or blow up your gun, and get yourself a pair of calipers to measure OAL. Load it however you want, just keep an eye on overall length.
If you're not riding the slide, you may want to test-load the round about 40 or 50 times, to see if they will still go bang at the end. (After checking OAL of course). I've never seen any evidence of it happening, due to the fact that most ammo is never chambered more than once, but priming compound could be knocked loose by repeated hard chamberings.
