I bought an older Glock 24C (40sw) and got bulged brass with factory loads (unsuported case head). This made it unsatisfactory for what I wanted the gun for which was to load up at near max for a side arm when hunting. I posted in the sale/trade forum and bought a new 357 Sig barrel for it that has performed perfectly.
I have shot approx. 250 rounds through it and staying within published max loads average velocitys are in the 1,370 fps range for my latest attempts. Spent brass looks great and I am happy. I may back down a little for accuracy but plan to keep the velocity high.
I also installed a Wolf extra power 19# spring. Brass ejects approx 5 feet.
In another thread I read where 357 Sig conversion from 40sw will beat up a gun. The other thread was specific to Browning Hi Power but if it is true for what I thought was a top quality gun then maybe it is true for a Glock.
Is this true? And if a 357Sig will beat up a gun, why?
Any thoughts, or better actual experience.
Thanks, James
