Which Max magazine did you try? The extended one (12rd?) is the one I hear causes problems, and is the one that won't feed XTP hp in mine.
Yes it was the 12 round. I'll try the 10 round mag.
Yep, I reload Blue Bullets and buggered one or two of them myself. I have not purchased or used any of their ammo. Only posted some pictures from a couple of reviews. From the reviews, it seems they have other issues as well.
Let us know if the magazine makes a difference.
I've been tempted to load some FN 45acp for 4" and under barrels.
It did make a difference. The 10rd mag only failed to feed on the first round and only once, and only if I inserted the mag while the slide was in battery, putting pressure on that first round driving the nose down further into the mag. If I inserted the mag with the slide locked back it chambered every time. That wasn't the case with the 12rd mag, the first round jammed regardless (and the second and the...). I thought I had more 10rd mags but I don't, however the pervious owner was nice enough to provide a 10rd mag bottom (what's that part called? The external part that slides off) but unfortunately it's not compatible with the floor plate of the 12rd mag.
My 12rd only holds eleven without using a ridiculous amount of pressure to load the 12th that really screws things up so it's only been an 11rd mag for me so I'm not losing much by going back to the 10rd. Got a great deal for someone, I'll trade you a 12rd LCP Max mag for a 10rd!! 😛😛😛
Good to have the 10 round "reported as good " verified again. I've got 3 12 round mags. I think my plan is to carry the 10 round magazine in the gun loaded with Lehigh, and the 12 round mags will be backup and loaded with ball.It did make a difference.

Update: Just ordered a 10rd mag.
I carry one full mag in the gun and one in a Desantis mag holder in my left back pocket. I carry the 12rd in the gun because the 10rd is easier to sit on.
Currently I'm still carrying the 12rd with the Fiocchi HPs, it functions well enough with them and have the 10rd loaded with the Lehigh/Underwood ammo. The Fiocchi HPs out of an LCP 2 made it through 1 layer of denim, 1 of fleece and 2 of cotton material, achieved 13" of penetration and fully expanded to .49" in ballistic gel, so not too shabby.
