Good rounds, shot just fine in all the pistols I ran it through. Fairly accurate as well, pretty clean considering the comparatively low cost. Also lead free, for those who are green concerned or shoot inside.

Was better when it was cheaper, but what can you do. I got my last box the day before it went up to it's current price, and will probably still buy it at this price. (Posted on 3/17/13)

Bad batch?

I had a box of these and was able to pull the bullet out of the brass by hand. When I checked I could spin almost every bullet in the box. Bad crimping! I had about 5 that the bullet pulled out of the brass when loading, spilling powder in my Kimber.

I am not sure if I had a bad batch, but it may be a while before I try Speer again. (Posted on 3/4/13)

Perfect performance in my 1911

I have a Sig 1911. I have used this ammo almost exclusively since my gun was new - approximately 1700 rounds. With the exception of 5 rounds or so that were failures to feed when the gun was brand new before it was broken in, every single other round has fed perfectly, fired perfectly, and hit the target consistently in tight groups. That's 1695 perfect rounds, folks - beat that! Quality brass, quality primers, clean firing, no cleanup and absolutely consistent target strikes. This is the perfect ammo for your practicing - buy it while you can, and Speer, please make more of it! I will buy no other practice ammo for my 1911. For my defense loads, when the gun is on duty, I choose Federal Premium Hydra-Shok Hollow Points. (Posted on 8/7/12)

I shot several 1 inch groups off hand at 10 yards today using a Colt Commander. Consistent and cleaner than most inexpensive Full Metal Jacket ammo.

It's the ammo of choice for me - no lead vaporization and the gun is as clean as a whistle after 500 rounds. What more could you want? (Posted on 8/7/11)
