358-105 SWC in 9mm

Aarrggh! I cannot get this little beast to feed in my SIG!!!
Am I the only one who has run into this? They shoot great, if I can get them into the chamber, which is a big "if". Short, long, this bullet does not like my loading ramp. Everyone's always singing this boolit's praises, but I feel like the only one who's moaning it's shortcomings. I've about given up. Feedback?

If you seat it too deep the malfunctions are very consistent, was the case mouth was stuck on the top of the chamber and the case head edge was about half way up the breech face?
I load them to the crimp line (Overall length at 1.035" to 1.040" measuring from different batch's) and they fed perfectly in PT99 and Inox 92.
I checked my 9mm w/ Lee 105gr SWC for browning high power and they were loaded 1.01"
Which Model SIG are you using?

Thank you for your reply, Artful.
It's a p226.
Yes, I think I dialed it in. They were loaded too short.
I seated some below the crimp line and they started to feed well.
Thank goodness for that–they make such a nice hole in the paper.

226 wasn't as picky as 225's - glad it's working for you now. It's nice to be able to get clean scoring on paper - I took some used my forester HP tool and made them into 90 grainer's for 380 use as well.

excellent idea.
