Very close to 9x23 Winchester. You won't have issues with the brass because it is designed for 55,000 psi. the question is how much pressure can the Glock take?

I have a good selection of reamers, ALL of the most common stuff and I probably would have just bought that one had I known I might need it more than once. I now take magnified before and after pics to cover my ass. The Elk Ridge people are fantastic though.
I think my saving grace so far is the heavy aftermarket slide I'm using. I could probably go for a heavier recoil spring too, just to play it safe. I let my buddy who's helping me with the load workup shoot it today and he wasn't expecting THAT recoil from a glock.
Jeebus, I didnt even consider that. Ive always been a fan of that round but never really liked any of the guns that are chambered for it. I doubt anything will ever come of this caliber besides me having stupid fun messing with it but it's fun nonetheless.bullsi1911 wrote: βSat Apr 19, 2025 2:44 pm This is looking really interesting. That is 7.62x25 velocity with bigger diameter bullets and just a barrel swap.
I like it

This would be me.![]()
Same. There was a company that was making drop-in barrels for 9mm 1911s in 7.62x25 for a while. Of course, by the time I got the 9mm 1911... they stopped making them.Justsomedude wrote: βSat Apr 19, 2025 9:39 pmJeebus, I didnt even consider that.
