I use GD 124 gr myself and I know others use it also.  Tom

That's what I use and I have never had an issue with it in mine.

M14-68, Congrats on you R-9.  Welcome to the forum.  Lucky for me my Minister of Finance has always said :  If you can figure out how to buy it,  Go ahead!  Dan

Thanks, glad to be here! Took the little jewel for another outing today before the temp with through the roof. Another flawless operation with Win White Box and Hornady TAP. Speer GD's on order to see if I had just a bad batch of ammo. But for now, it goes outside with TAP. Between range sessions there is much fondling and cooing.

124 gr gd used here also, no problems ever.

That fondling and cooing, so well said, never seems to stop.

Ok, thought i would close this one out with another range report. Recall I had some failures to fire with Speer GD's a while back. The primers had a "squished" look rather than a nice firm dimple. I held off on carrying with GD's and used Hornady TAP as they proved to be 100% in my pistol. Well I jusk got back from the range and went through 25 rounds of 147 gr GD's with no issues. Primers had nice dimples. I can only assume my previous bad experience was due to a lot that hard especially hard primers. Got to clean the baby and deceide what to load. Hummmm? I might stick with TAP as it's a lower flash ammo and that might be a plus in a dark situation. But it's good to know the GD issue seems to be settled.

One more thing: My son is a police officer in a local agency. I rode with him and his partner since the last post. They insisited I carrry. Guess what went along for the ride?

Wow that's pretty cool they let you carry while riding with them. I guess it helps he's your son. I have a good friend and did several "ride-alongs" and they told me I couldn't carry mine.... and even reminded me it was against State Law to even carry onto the Cop Shop Property as it is City Government Property, a definite no no in Ohio.

I ride with another local agency and i can't even bring a pen knife. i do bring a flashlight and that does come in handy.
