RZ 10 FTF issues

[swinokur]

Took my new RZ 10 to the NRA range today.

Failure to feed constantly, slide wouldn't go back into battery, etc.

I suspect the 180g TMJ Underwood ammo is the problem. It has a wide flat meplat. Before I call DW, I'm going to try so Freedom JHP and some GA ammo. It did this with both Tripp and Wilson mags.

Thoughts or suggestions appreciated. I will try again before calling DW.

Thanks

Did it just need a nudge on the rear of the slide? Is it broken in? Maybe just needs more rounds down range.

On those times it fed ok, I had to push the slide into battery. But there were instances of a round failing to get into the chamber as well.

More break in before I call DW?

gonna try different ammo too.

I'd want to run some good ole Federal ball through it for a true test. Unless I'm mistaken, all the ammo you listed in your post is one-off or reman. Not saying it won't fire but I'd do the break-in with quantifiable, unfired factory ammo.

all the stuff is factory new ammo. no re manufactured stuff.

i am trying to find some plain ball ammo. hard to find for a 10mm.

suggestions appreciated.

Found some at Midawy American Eagle 180 FMJ. we'll see if it eats that before I do anything else.
