My new Gen5 G17 is throated wrong for my 124gr Berry flatpoints unless they're at 1.09 COAL. I am using 3.7gr of Titegroup. Is this unsafe?

Had similar issue a while back. Emailed the powder folks (cant remember who it was now) and got the green light.
You're fine, I load down to 1.08 so that they will reliably chamber in one of my M&P 2.0's. That barrel has no leade whatsoever and I have to load my rounds short. I have a feeling if I send it back to S&W they will say that it's in spec.

My Berry's 124 FP are loaded to 1.035 using 5.3gr of Unique. Different burn rates though.
Taking a break from social media.
When I was loading Berrys FPs, I used 4.2 gr of Titegroup at 1.120. You should be fine with loading down to 1.09 using your load of 3.7 gr Titegroup.
I've loaded and shot > 50K worth of 124 grain Berrys flat points, 4.0 grains of Titegroup loaded at 1.065. No pressure issues and it's a VERY accurate minor power factor load.
^^ My experience with CZ's was that you had to load short 1.00" with 4.0 of TG and a 124gr.
I think you'd be fine.
Much thanks, gents! I was hoping for practical advice not "work up a load, it's the only way you'll know" and I got it
Time to warm up ye old sicksfitty.
