A few months ago I replied to a post on this forum about the same issue another member was having with 100 gr. SPBT Speer bullets.
I was having the same issue as he was with the point deforming when loading in the chamber. I carefully bent the feed lips so the tip of the bullet did not ride the feed ramp as hard but rather more on the side of the secant and the olgive. This was a tedious process as it is one of those cases that a little goes a long way, and no two brands of bullets are exactly alike. I have thousands of those 100 SPBT and my son loves to shoot them, and I'm glad he does because he would rather shoot steel targets than hone his skills on paper targets. They were cheap pulls I got, they shoot pretty damn good though. I use the messed up ones for barrel foulers after the barrel has been cleaned and de coppered.

If you can not see the tyranny of having a gun ban enforced by men with guns... Then you fail to understand why the second amendment was written in the first place.
