By "bullet setback" I'm referring to this, where repeated rechambering of the same round might cause dangerous overpressure.I normally carry 9mm Federal HST 124gr hollow-points in a Glock 19 or 43, and ever since reading about bullet setback I've become paranoid that I have a ticking time bomb in my chambered round.I do shoot my carry magazine and the +1 every few months, but in between I might rechamber the round a few times. I could just never rechamber a round, and use fresh rounds, but this can get somewhat pricey quickly.So, I was thinking about doing the following rechambering method to avoid the bullet setback problem:Insert full magazine. Assume the top round has been chambered before (and will soon be re-chambered).Rack the slide but instead of dropping it, slowly ride the slide forward to chamber a round, making sure that the gun is in battery by checking that the slide is fully forward.Remove the magazine and top it off.Check again that the gun is in battery.Re-insert magazine.HolsterIf I rechamber by this following method, will I avoid the bullet setback problems AND avoid introducing other problems? Or am I totally misunderstanding bullet setback? via /r/CCW https://ift.tt/2PO8vfU
