Taurus 709 not completly supported

Post by wgoforth »

I noticed recently that the cartridge does not fully go into the barrel of the 709, with some protrusion out of the feed ramp area. I have had several casings to get stuck in the barrel and appear to be bulged. Some brands do worse than others. I sent it back to Taurus, they "fixed" it...they no longer get wedged in the barrel (not yet anyway) but there is still the same lack of full support. Is this lack of fully supported case common on other brands and models?
