First FTF in my Ruger LCP: Buffalo Bore "+P"

Ran another few mags through my LCP the other day...

ALL factory ammo has run flawlessly through this gun to this point. 6 or 7 different brands of FMJs, 6 or 7 different HPs.

The only misfeeds were with very hot loads (max-loaded handloaded HPs, one mag only, won't use again),

And now the Buffalo Bore "+P" HP load. Same type of failure; the slide fails to return to battery/FTF.

Also the recoil is QUITE NOTICEABLY more with the BB load than with Hornady/Remington/Federal defense loads, which feel like pussycats by comparison. I'm sticking with those from now on, at least in this tiny gun.
