Sorry, I mispoke. I meant a fully assembled round, not just a bullet.

good load, crappy brass. I reload 9x18 really hot. I've had S&W brass, Federal brass, and Sellor & Ballot brass deform in a fully supported chamber shooting a 100gr bullet. Check, double check, and recheck again when it comes to the seating depth of the bullet when you step up in weight, pressures can go really high, really fast. i found this out using the same weight bullets from different manufacturers...never even dawned on me till it fragg'd a Makarov barrel to checl the OAL of the bullet before seating it! Complacency can kill you.....

Is this True?? Part of the barrel is the SAME THICKNESS AS 4 PEICES of PAPER??? ......That sounds like a Lawsuit waiting to happen! What's going on w/ Ruger these days? First they put out the Mark III with a loaded Chamber Indicator that could set off a rimfire cartridge if struck, Then the SR9 recall, now this! Wow!! Add that to the fact that Ruger is slowly adding Key-locks to ALL of their hand-gun line.........and DAMN!...They're making it hard for me to justify buying their Products any more!!! ....And I've always been partial to RUGER's too: Mini-14 Ranch PC-4 Carbine Super Blackhawk .44 Birds-head Vaquero .357 SP-101 .357 .22 Mark III .22 Bearcat.....................................

Fellas, I've reloaded thousands of .380's for the last 20 years. I've loaded for a Colt Gov., an Iver Johnson Pony and a Makarov. I have never had an incident of any kind. I have used Unique, Universal Clays and AA#5 and loaded what the manuals specified. Not maximums ,but quite close and all makes and manners of bullets. There's no more difficulty for the .380 than there is for the 9mm maybe less. The .380 is a straight wall case the 9mm is tapered. This sounds like a gun problem to me.
