I run tula cheapo all of the time, never had any problem with it. It's dirty & smokey, but I ran some WWB today that was just as bad.

 

[SaintsNSinners]

I dont think I have ever run any tula in my XD40SC.... and until I get around to getting rich enough to reload i figure Ill probably pick up the cheapest range ammo i can....

Also found out for some reason my Xd doent like winchester ranger FMJ...

 

[SEIndSAM]

In fact, I am pretty proud of myself. Went to the range and put some rounds into paper, came home and finsihed deep cleaning all of my guns (or at least the ones that have been fired since the last deep cleaning).

 

[db1959]

That stinks DB, how many rounds have you put downrange with it. Still under warranty???

How ya doing SNS. Did ya every buy any ammo???

Around 500, maybe a little more. I bought it in Oct. 2011 so I hope its still under warranty. Emailed Ruger CS.

Sorry to hear that, my M&P hasn't found an ammo it won't eat. Although I bought a S&W 3914 last week and found it didn't like WWB.

Oh yeah. you'll be fine if you have only had it six months.

I lost my EDC!

My Ruger SR40 suddenly decided it doesnt want to feed correctly. I cant see what is causing the problem either. I can see what it is doing though. It looks as if the cartridge isnt feeding into the chamber straight. Its cocked a little to the side. Does it with both mags.

Looks like I'll be contacting Ruger.

I just bought a new EDC a week or so ago... got tired of waiting for the XDs -- an XDm 3.8" in .45acp

 

[SaintsNSinners]

I did get word today that my Engraved Lower will be at the FFL on monday... which kinda sucks... I work 15 hrs on monday... That will be a fun day.. work 8hrs, go to the FFL, go back to work for 8 more hours, then sleep

 

[db1959]

I shot the SR40 with WWB 180gr, 165gr, Federal stuff and een tried some speer gold dot. Nothing works.

Sweet!!!!!

There was somebody on here earlier this week posting some .45 ammo.

 

[SaintsNSinners]

I got a bunch of brass from the range... my stupid buddy swept a bunch up and put it the range bucket.... Stupid friend I save my brass

 

[SEIndSAM]

Why are you having to work so many hours in one day??? Covering a shift for someone??

Is it failing to feed or failing to fire?

 

[db1959]

Now it's either the 92FS or XD9sc for EDC. I was really digging the 40 round too.
