But on day two when i shot the same gun, had a lot of rounds either not fully chambering or the mag being difficult to put i at first

I put that down to two things, it was dry and the feed lips on the mag bowed out.

Forgive my ignorance im still just coming into this 45 world

Thanks

oh yeah the shot groups were insane on that thing

Kimber makes great firearms... but dump that mag and pickup a wilson combat mag. You'll see the difference immediately in how it chambers. The biggest difference IIRC is the angle on the follower with the wilson combat mag having it better dialed in of the two.
