I have ... it’s also why the gun gets so dirty. Cheap rounds, but too dirty for me.

I see what you’re saying, and it’s a great idea, but something about that rings, “poor form.” And we know it is poor form because why not then just advertise this fact? “Only works with our ammo.” “Works best with SIG ammo.” Whatever. You know what I mean. I mean useless ammo performance reflects poorly on a gun.
The fact is, I buy Glocks because they are pigs and eat just about anything reliably. I carry a 43 that has no more rounds than a snub and isn’t exactly a laser because I know it’s a pig and it’ll go bang. And if I’m in some po-dunk town, and I’m forced to buy ammo locally, I’m pretty confident it’ll go bang too.
If that ever changed, I’d pack a 1911 or a snub and never look back. I think most of us wood... in spite of the fact we’ll probably never need to buy defense ammo in nowhereland.
Its a great idea for a manufacturer when it makes something that uses proprietary anything - but they’d be out of luck getting my bucks. And I’d badmouth em to boot lol.
I like Speer Gold Dot 124gr, carry something that law enforcement carries. Just don't use any of that Zombie Killer ammo or anything stupid like that!! God forbid you had to defend yourself a Liberal Prosecutor or DA will have a field day with that ammo! If you are new to carrying please get a good carry insurance, Legal fees will ruin your life!Hi all,
So I'm slowly testing out ammo for my carry gun and wanted to ask what everyone prefers. I tired Sig V-Crown 124gr this last weekend and while the Stacatto-C likes them just fine the -P does not! I have 9mm Speer Gold Dots, Remington Golden Sabers, and Federal HSTs inbound all in the 124gr flavor for reliability testing. Anything I should give a whirl? None of these are +P or +P+ but I am not opposed nor am I set on the 124gr weight. What do ya'll like?
Some good ammo there nikonNUT! Be safe and enjoy your day at the range!

The Federal HST has one of the largest diameter hollow point cavities of all manufactured HP brands. I always worry about using them with smaller pistols with small skinny feed ramps, because the large cavities of the bullet has been known to get hung up on small feed ramps.I carry Federal HST 124gr in my HKs and my Sig P365.
What was your yardage distance for the targets?
Always get good at shooting with iron sights first before moving on to scopes & dotsFired at 10 yards, two handed grip, and eyeballing center mass. A dot might have been a good idea for aimings sake...

Sorry nikonNut, I thought you were referring to Red Dot SightsI meant a dot on the target for a reference point
No worries! I might grab an RMR someday but my eyes aren't that bad... Yet!Sorry nikonNut, I thought you were referring to Red Dot Sights
