Anyone ever have problems chambering Federal Premium HST HP in a Rugar LC9 ? Just bought a new box and tried chambering a few, had trouble with most of them jamming.

No problems with mine. How are you chambering? Try having the slide open, insert magazine, and then racking the slide.

It did chamber that way. Had the LC9 since October and never a problem with FMJ. Will probubly try another brand and run 50 or so through at the range to make sure. Thanks

I run remington golden sabers in mine, no problem.

If you are having problems chambering a round with magazine in and slide closed, you might not be pulling the slide back far enough and/or quickly releasing it to give it enough force.
