should I be worried .40 perfecta

[Red-Osier]

I was looking at some of my recently fired brass and discovered a bulge in the perfecta brass, cci blazer no bulge. It was fired through a sd40ve. It matches the porting in my barrel so should I be worried? what do you guys think.

Sorry for the large picture, for the record not all the perfecta's had severe bulging but none of the blazer had deformation at all.

I think it's normal.. my G42 and G43 does the same thing when shooting Perfecta ammo. No issue when shooting Federal, Winchester, and other big name brands.

Yeah I had fired lots of this ammo and no issues, but I was on another thread about perfecta and it made me look at my recent fired stuff and there it was bulged! never paid that much attention to it.

That is pretty bad. If you like your hands shoot it in another gun.

Better to be safe than sorry.

Or shoot better ammo.

So the oval port after the feed ramp in the barrel is not supporting the case? that was my thought or cheap thin brass or both?

2 dollars a box saved is not worth my hand.

I'm guessing that you have a Glock. Get an aftermarket barrel that fully supports the chamber.

That is exactly right. Pull the barrel out of the pistol and drop the case in. It will line right up.
