Also, I tried loads at 30 grains, 31 and 31.5 and still had failure to extract with the lighter loads. I even used some once fired Hornady brass in case it was the brass itself. No luck. I'm now talking to the manufacturer to see if there are any other issues like this. 230 grain FMJs show up tomorrow, so I'll finally have something else to test against.
Just a reminder.
RE, 230 grain FMJs and Lil Gun.
Do NOT use my load data beyond 42.0 grains of Lil Gun. I was WAY out of SAAMI specs on pressures and your rifle will be different than the one I tested those loads with. Start at 38.0 grains and work up slowly. You should start getting a decent seal around 39.8 grains-40.5 grains of Lil Gun and be sure you have a good crimp.
