I have had a few random FTF's in .45 acp with factory ammo as of late.
The rounds would only go in about half way and most of the time I could close the slide with my thumb. I have been told that a lot of factory ammo has been showing up with out of spec taper crimps.
The pistol was clean and my recoil spring only had around 500 rounds on it.
I am pretty sure it is the ammo as 95% of the rounds feed fine and they are ending up in the chamber they just don't want to seat all of the way.
