Title: First FTF
Post by: Dberg on July 22, 2010, 08:31:26 AM: I decided to shoot one more time before I cleaned this pup and shot two clips of winchester white box and then wanted to check out the winchester ranger 147gr. No problems at all. I ran one more clip of Critical Defense and had one FTF. Had to squeeze 3 times before it decided to check out the paper down range. That did it for me. No more CD. Even though one FTF I can't rely on it. So I guess Hornady has not fixed the primer problem. I do like the ballistic testing on Rangers though. They are suppose to be similar to the black talon minus the Teflon coating.

When I get sone time and it's not 98 degrees I'll take the PM9 out and shoot, no fun when it's this hot. ;D

Post by: birdman on July 22, 2010, 09:34:06 PM: Dberg, would you check the lot #'s of the CDs that you are having problems with, lot #30911459 is the batch that most of us had trouble with. My solution, if you want to call it that, is to not buy any more CD ammo. As I said in an earlier post, there is too much good ammo out there now. With STs and GDs plentiful again I will stick with what works. Good luck, Gene

Post by: kjtrains on July 22, 2010, 09:53:25 PM: Gene. We do agree. Silvertips work.

I had 4 boxes of lot # 3100720. I fed it 50 rounds the other day with no problem. But, since I had 1 FTF I won't use it in my P9S. I may put it in my xdm 3.8 since it likes to eat anything though.

I do think my favorites for the P9S are the GD and the Rangers.
