S. Sumner: those pictures say it all and those are some nasty shots. When we started shooting our Toks some of the chinese ammo we would get (all we could get then) had some serious fluctuations in pressures and lots of us were very happy when Sellier and Bellot came out with their loadings.
Had some hot Chech stuff lock back a few Tokarev slides at the range one day and the shooters became very uncomfortable and some quite scared of shooting their pistols again.
The article is right about either just trashing the ammo or at least pulling the bullets but I think trashing is best. Some of those loadings used undersized bullets and the resultant accuracy isn't worth the effort to pull and then reload them.
BTW, have you had the chance to try some of the reloads talked up on the Curio and Relic site - reloads are being offered and they sound very nice although I wonder is some might not be too hot for the Tok. Hope all is well. Mikey.
