Hello, it's me again asking for your kind advice. I have a Para P 14-45 that shoots very well, but is giving me trouble feeding Lee's 230 LRN bullets. These bullets are pretty "blunt" for a RN, and after shooting about 50 rounds the chamber gets a bit dirty and the bullets start to hung up in the entrance of the chamber (this load is a bit "dirty", but I would like my gun to feed everything decently), with marks of hitting a sharp corner and sometimes a bit of shaving. Initially I thought the chamber was rough, but I checked it real carefully, even polish it a bit, and now I'm sure the problem is not the ramp or the chamber. Apparently the sides and top of the barrel entrance have edges that are a bit sharp, and this combines with the bullet profile/dirty ramp and chamber to produce the jams. I think I have to bevel/round just a little bit these internal edges, to make a "funnel" for the incoming bullet. Of course I want to remove as little metal as possible,can you please tell me how to do it? Excuse me for taking so much space, but I'll have to do it myself, because I can't find a gunsmith that I trust where I live. Thanks!!
