Google did it for me, found several sources most being TV or paper media sources  but if you look at the actual list of "essential" businesses it doesnt surprise me a bit-- especially when people "stretch" the boundaries of the definitions

I dont really understand-- only 1 in 5 Americans are considered "non-essential"
That means 80% of Americans are still going to work.

Have you checked the length of the brass? The bulged brass pics look like the mouth of the case might be rolled in, indicating that the brass might be too long or the chamber too short--- or ot could just be an optical illusion.

Have you contacted the manu regarding the issue? They would probably tell. You not to run reloads though if you brought it up

What weight buffer? "Full house" and suppressed, you are suposed to run the 8 oz buffer
5 ps comes with the gun, and 3 oz is for light loads

It's a radial delayed blowback system so I would try a heavier buffer if you arent already

Is that from beartooth? I've had issues with them in the past.

Info on the spring I used
Wolff #54222- description says xd(m) series 4.5" 9mm, 45, 40s&w for use with factory or wolf guide rod-- extra power spring-- 22.0 lbs.

I bought it from prp when I bought my drop in trigger kit.
I have not measured it but it does make the slide harder to rack and the brass does not eject near as far so it must be stronger than the stock spring.

Hope that helps

Ok-- measured
The 200gr lbt with the .325" meplat is seated to 1.210" for my RIA
But in the osp I have to seat it to 1.195"

Has anyone compared gel tests with the different meplat bullets? I'm assuming slightly more penetration with the .300 but more tissue disruption with the .325 meplat bullets.

This load is for closer pistol hunting of deer possibly elk and a protection sidearm for mtn lion/ bear if needed

I dont have my data with me here, but I got lots of info from another member here when I did my load work up for my RIA. 
The lbt 200 gr with the .325" meplat had to be seated really close to the start of the ogive to get it to freely "plunk" into the barrel chamber on that gun. I tried those loaded rounds in my osp and the slide wont fully close as the bullets are hitting the throat.
If you tried to tap the slide closed it still would not close, but when you racked the slide to eject it was super hard and would pull the bullet from the case and stick it in the barrel (obviously bad) ...I went home and made a dummy round for seating purposes with that bullet fir the new pistol, but that bullet seems like it's super deep in the case now.-- I thought a smaller meaplat/more tapered ogive bullet might be better suited to this pistol chamber/throat

So in my RIA 52000 I used the Montana bullet works LBT 200gr wfn/coated (.402)

It has a meplat of .325", but due to its large meplat and ogive profile, it has to be seated fairly deep in my pistol

Now comes the next stage-- my new springfield osp wont properly chamber the same bullet set at the same seating depth so it clearly has a shorter throat than the RIA-- I'm worried about pushing the lbt wfn in much deeper so I'm looking at different bullets.

I see Montana has an "MP" 200 grain wfn that has a meplat of .300" and what looks to be a more gentle sloping ogive profile.

Has anyone tried these "mp 200gr wfn" bullets? Are they better suited to semi autos than the lbt style ones?

Last question is size-- I know that size is king in regards to leading, my bore measures out at .4005-.401" -- should I stick with the .402" for the m&p or you think the .401 would be ok at just .0005" over bore?

Except I do all this via phone not computer

The Tapatalk app is your friend for this. Super easy to upload pics. You can even pic the size of the pic when you upload.

Used to use it, then realized how much tracking/data collection they do-- guess I'm just sol, used to also use photobucket untill they took ransom on all pics, due to that issue I'd never use another photo hosting site either

Anyway to reduce the file size on an android once the pic has been taken? I know you can change file soze before you take it, just unaware of how/if you can alter/change file size after its taken
