So I replaced a few parts with Galloway parts and took it out to the range today, the gun shoots great and trigger is awesome. However almost every round out of 90 jammed. The gun would fire and the slide would lock back and stay back. it looked like the bullets were getting caught on the tip of the ejector (looked like) when I pulled down on the slide release the rounds loaded just fine I just had to do it every shot. Any ideas on what the issue could be? I have never had any issues with feeding on about 6 different brands of ammo although this I had never used before. (winchester 180gr)
Also I cannot duplicate this problem with snap caps or live rounds when cycling the slide manually, only when the gun was fired it happened.

Although even though I had to keep racking the slide my shots were still solidly on target

Well, considering the fact that it hasn't happened with other brands of ammo, I'd venture to guess its the Winchester.

Did you shoot it before replacing parts?
