I would fire a box of factory ammo through it before I took it to the gunsmith, especially since the Hi Power wasn't fond of it either.
That would have been my initial guess especially if this is a reloader first time. Most people are and frankly should be conservative and use too little powder when they start. Hell if you use too little powder your gun might not cycle....use too much and your gun might explode!

Nothing wrong with erring on the side of caution(hell it's something every gun owner should do a bit naturally). But yea if the factory ammo doesn't work you might have an issue. Reloaded there is just too many variances in ammo to be sure.
