All of them work. I'd stay away from 185 swc's Target loads probably won't cycle.

I've got the Federal HST's in mine. No certain reason other than after watching a ton of reviews on 45 ammo on youtube I felt it was the best to go with.

230 grain will probably work best, as that is what they are designed to shoot.

Personally, I like the Speer Gold Dot.

Make sure you use quality magazines. I use Wilson Combat.

I always alternate hornady critical defense and a heavy full metal jacket in my clips

Winchester White Box 230gr. JHP or maybe some Silvertips.
Yes, I'm old. Love those Silvertips.

I'm glad you said that. It came with some mags but they're old and probably been loaded and not shot for 25 plus years.

Do those clips stay in your hair when you put those heavy bullets on them?

They are magazines, NOT clips.

Peter id get some of the federal HST. If you ever cruise on youtube look up TNoutdoors9 I believe it is. He does some pretty extensive testing on different manufactures. There is also another website I think I may can find ill shoot to ya.


Only accurate rifles are interesting.

Winchester Ranger T is the old reliable and notorious Black Talon ammo without the black coating. It's wicked.


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

These are proven and very hard to beat.
