corrected it for you.

If it won't eat that handload, then something in that handload needs to be changed so it will eat it.

You can make the handload any way you want it.. so the right kind of load should be edible for the XD just as the factory ammo it has been eating without problems.

Hell, handload doesn't mean much in terms of specs of the round ..
You can have ****ty factory load, ****ty handload..

Last week a guy had a .222 remington cause overpressure in his bolt action rifle @ the range.. and that was factory ammo. So there's no guarantees there either.

I'm sure we can find factory ammo out there that your XD won't like either.


If one handload doesn't work, make another one.
What went wrong with the XD and the handload? failure to feed? failure to cycle? stovepiping, what ?
So what handload was it? how much grain was the bullet? what kind of bullet? JHP? FMJ ? lad tip? round, wadcutters etc etc.

If something doesn't add up, then add something else up till it does work.

EDIT "other guys handload" ok, what Porsche Poor said..
