First, sorry if I get any of the terminology wrong, not a very experienced shooter, lol.
Went shooting today and it appears my gun had issues feeding cci blazer brass 45 acp ammo. It would get hung up in the mag and not feed locking the slide partly open 2-3 times / 15 rounds. Last time I went to the range I thought it was the mags or the way I was holding the gun but after switching ammo, all the issues went away. It was the last of it and I had switched to Federal aluminum 45 acp.
I went 30 rounds cci with feed problems, 60 rounds federal no issues, 30 rounds cce with feed problems, then finished off the federal I had brought. Because of this rotation, I don't think it's me or the mags as I used the same 2 mags over and over.
The brass casing definitely felt more pronounced when I rubbed my thumbs over it but then it could just be that aluminum is softer than brass.
I'm about to buy more ammo and am wondering if there is something I can do or get a gunsmith to do to resolve this since I'd prefer to buy brass on the off chance one day I want to reload.
