Well, I had two rather expensive 10mm pistols, a Dan Wesson RZ-10 Razorback and a Fusion Firearms custom built long slide Hunter in 10mm. Decided I wanted a cheaper 10mm for general plinking and to keep in practice with and save some wear and tear on my other two. Got an RIA TAC II for right about $600 NIB. Fist thing I noticed was it was a bushingless bull barrel. Never had a 1911 type pistol with that before. Anyways I took it to the range with the Fusion to compare. The first mag supplied with the pistol, all rounds fired fine. The second mag was a third party no name mag that wouldn't feed at all. I'm like Uh-oh, because it worked fine in the Fusion. But that was the only mag that did not work. (And I have lots of different manufacturer's 10mm mags.) There was one reloaded round that would not cycle through the RIA. But it also did not cycle through my Fusion. Never did figure out why. Going to pull the bullet, resize it again and see if it works. Anyways, other than those two things, the RIA performed faultlessly. Accuracy was pretty much equivalent to the Fusion, but I wasn't really shooting that well myself that day. Lets just say at 21 feet, I was putting them all inside the circle of the target. No weird flyers, I just couldn't seem to get a decent group that day. Same thing with the Fusion.

All and all, looks like a pretty decent gun for the price. And I do love 10mm.

Was that one of the bullets that didn't feed from the unmarked magazine?  You may want to look an see if the bullet got pushed over if it got jammed...not true and straight.  Or the brass got smashed out of round to an oval shape.

If it just doesn't feed fully...Was this reused brass?  Possibly not resized or fully resized, or has an expansion very low near the extractor cut.  Some dies don't reach that area because of the shell holder and the radius of the sizing die's opening.

Is it a cast bullet? Some time if the case is not expanded enough bullet material can shave on the case mouth, plated can do this also, that is holding it from full battery. 

Good luck figuring it out!  Let us know what you find!

Congrats! What type ammo / # of rounds did you fire?

Definitely reused brass. Maybe from before I got my Lee "Bulge Buster" set to iron out any Glock smilies from any range pickups I snatch. It would not feed in two pistols using two different mags. I figure disassemble, resize, then measure the crap out of it with some calipers. It was the same bullets I use in all my 10mm reloads, this was the only one I had a problem feeding.
