What is your COAL? That aftermarket barrel might have a shorter throat or a tight chamber. Seat the bullet 0.010" deeper and see if that resolves it.Luck favors the prepared.
The original battle plan did not survive initial contact with the enemy.

My guess is the brass is not being sized small enough. Aftermarket barrels sometimes have tight chambers. I’ve had same issue with a Glock 35 and .40 brass. I used a lee undersized die and it fixed it.

Kling test on the Faxon barrel ?Comment

Do you have calipers?
No guessing needed with good calipers around.Comment

Plunk test them. Do this with a bunch of loaded cartridges, not just one.
If they don't go all the way in, color it completely with a magic marker. Plunk again and see where the ink rubs off. That will tell you where the problem is and will make fixing it much easier.
Good luck and don't give up.Comment

If you are using once fired brass from another Glock, that may be your problem. Glocks have a partially unsupported barrel that cause a small bulge near the base. They may not have a issue in an oversized Glock fracture barrel but may be too tight for a tighter custom barrel. Take a look at the Lee budge buster. It’s made specifically for resizing once fired cases from Glocks. Because a 9mm Luger case is tapered, you will have to use a 9mm Markolo sizing die when using the Lee bullet buster.
If you google it, you will find several threads that will explain how to use the Lee bulge buster before running then through your normal 9mm Luger dies.
Hope that helps.Comment

This.
I use the EGW (rebranded Lee) for all my 9mm. EGW shows in stock.
My mother always told me to be careful what you ask for.
Just one more piece of parental advice I stupidly ignored.
