Anyway, point isn't to bash - the barrel is heck of a barrel for a staggeringly good price; and the team purchase experience was quite pleasant.
Just for whatever reason, 123's and my kit don't seem to get along. Between my own experience, and the odd trend for some manufactures to seem to think short-throating the barrel is a good idea, I'm beginning to think 123's don't seem to throat jump so good. Blunt objective bullets like the 90's and 120's, seem to do better; which is consistent with bullets forgiving to throat-jump. In a semi-auto, there's not much one can do about that, other than buy a short-throat barrel, single load, or just don't use 123's if your particular barrel doesn't seem to run them.
