Please send it back and tell them you shot reloads in it. Then let us know how it goes.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By BuddyChryst: You can shoot one gun fine and be terrible with another, especially if it’s more powerful with less grip. You can also just have a bad day. A little dehydrated, nerves, who knows. I would shoot from a rest and then have a known competent shooter try to eliminate you as the issue. I would also stop with the reloads. That’s another way of eliminating you as the source of the issue. If it’s still bad after that, go ahead and send it back. But what I’m reading is the reason why manufacturers have you ship back on your dime until they determine if there is an issue. 8” at 12yds really requires something to be seriously wrong, and is much more likely to be end user error. 10mm is not that powerful. Never felt any pain or discomfort shooting it. Kinda laughed while shooting it how comfortable it felt. My friend also shot it, he was hitting 2ft left while shooting at a target 50 yards away. |

I also have never seen it on a polygonal rifled Glock, so I doubt that's the cause, here. Anyway, I have to see if my old man has a mic. He's got a pocket 10 and I'm curious if he can measure his chamber/groupings before a thread lock. |

Without known good ammo you have nothing . Read the owners manual. Are you afriad of factory ammo? Maybe your loads and that gun do not work well together.. I would send it back with a sternly worded letter.

My Springfield lw champion has a much tighter chamber than my loaded but the loaded is much more accurate.
My m625 in .45 colt has chambers cut for .45 colt. That's a bit bigger than .45 acp chambers and yet stacks .45 acp in phenomenal groups. If that gun has an issue I don't think it's the chamber. |

Measure the OD of the brass case, looks like it could be .425 and as low as .415.
You didn't mention the brass but I would be looking for several brass cases for comparison of OD. I would likely try a couple of different factory ammo's to add to the mix. |

Do you have anything else chambered in 10mm that you could drop a reloaded round into and see if it wobbles?
I’d also drop in a factory round in the chamber to rule out the possibility of a bad sizing die |

Maybe your loads and that gun do not work well together.. I would send it back with a sternly worded letter. I loaded start to full loads from the Hodgdon reloading manual. Actually, for the 135gr, exceeded the MAX charge by .2grains and had no issues. Started at 9gr and ended up at 10.4gr of CFE pistol. Shot strings at 1.26”, 1.255” and 1.25” COL.  Attached FileNosler lists 9.5gr as the most accurate using the same powder. |

My vote is try some factory ammo that's 180gn or 200gn jacketed or plated. My 40sw and my 10mm does not group well with the lightweight bullets. I have a hunch it's because of the high velocity and small bearing surface of the bullet. I ran into a similar problem loading certain 9mm 115gn jacketed bullets at 1500 fps for my 2011 open gun.
I have also found that Glocks don't group very well shooting hardcast or bullets like what you posted. My 10mm glock shoots one hole groups with 180 or 200gn jacketed bullets but the gun really opens up with my 220gn buffalo bore and 200gn HSM bear loads. The group was 5in at 25 yards. Fine for bear defense but not for hunting with. The fix is getting a barrel with traditional lands and groove rifling like a KKM if you want accuracy with hardcast lead bullets. I have seen the same problem in 3 other glock 10mms and a barrel swap with traditional rifling fixed the accuracy, but YMMV. I have not measured the back of my glock chambers but they don't call it glock bulge for nothing |

It measures between.431” and .434” depending on depth and orientation. This pistol shoots fine. Unless the chamber ID is grossly over spec it isn’t going to be the difference between a 2” group at 10 yards and an 8” group. |

Nothing in the world fills me with more mirth than reloading tards who continue to claim that a particular gun has a problem because it won't run reliably with their retarded reloads and maintain radio silence when asked how the same gun runs with factory ammo. Because their reloads are SO good, and SO within spec, and SO infallible, and they themselves are of course above reproach in their reloading methods. Bad news; you're a fucking tard. The gun is fine. Sad panda.

A few people in the room said, “Damn” As I passed the officers, the Major gave me a nod. I don’t shoot competition, I’m sure many can beat me but at the range, I only met 1 other person who could outshoot me with a pistol, he won awards in the Army pistol competition. So I’m no Jerry Miculek by any stretch but I’m also not a slack jawed basement dweller. this is pure gold.  and not in the good way that you'll take italso OP:  the Office - Go-karting |

Did OP also verify the twist rate is within acceptable tolerances? That could be just a much a culprit…

Ran 2-3 mags through it and the room got quieter, heads started to turn over, granted, these are teachers so not much to talk about. Got done. Stopped for a second, looked around and the entire room was watching me. A major and a colonel were watching and smiled. 2 young Marines pushed some teachers aside and said, we got this…they shot 1/2 a mag, shot like shit, and moved away from the line.

OP, I'm not going to bag on your shooting skills, I don't think that's the issue. But there is a lot more to accuracy than just the chamber diameter. I think your best bet is to get a match barrel installed. You shoot good enough to get good results with an improved gun.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By NoPurposeFlour: Stock Glock triggers are fine. If you can't shoot accurately on a stock glock, your trigger control and press sucks. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By NoPurposeFlour: Originally Posted By crazymoose: Glocks actually have pretty good mechanical accuracy, especially in 10mm and .45. It's just hard to get it out of them due to the triggers. Stock Glock triggers are fine. If you can't shoot accurately on a stock glock, your trigger control and press sucks. I shot stock Glock triggers for years, and it definitely made me a better shooter. Then I tried the Glock Performance trigger. Then I never looked back. |
