Got a LF threaded barrel and comp for my G35.  I'm having failures to feed, the round hangs up just after the bullet enters the chamber, kind of like the rim is catching the top of the chamber.  Loaded some Berry's RN 155 gr to 1.118 OAL and put a .4205 taper crimp on the round.  That helped but did eliminate the problem.  Lone Wolf is willing to open up the chamber, but before that I though I'd check for other solutions here.  Any ideas guys?

are you using 9mm mags?  I had the same problem with my G35 until I switched to 9mm mags and got a couple hundred rounds through - now it functions great

If LWD's willing to ream out the chamber for ya, let 'em.  Those chambers are very tight.  

Same problem with mine.  I reamed it out slightly.

It's 100% now.

Thanks, I'll send it off to them.  They've been very nice about the whole thing and I really like their products.  They asked me to send a couple of dummy rounds too.

LWD barrels are minimum spec. Reamed mine, too. I reload 9mm. Runs 100% with anything in spec. I wanted a reliable barrel for defensive drills on my G19, not to hit quarters at 20 yards.

Same here my friend.  I could care less if the 25 yd group opened up 1/8 inch.  I want reliability, and that's what I've got now.

I haven't noticed any appreciable diminishing of accuracy though.  Nothing significant, anyway.

to all my friends on the forum............the LWD chambers are tight........I have shot Winchester white box from china-mart flawlessly......As far as reloads have been concerned there have been issues.........VVV has been helpfull..........But I have been using the "U" die from egw and this sizes the brass down so it works in my lone wolf barrel....................get this thing...........
