"Best to you Jesse! I will keep and eye on it myself. I look for Bruce to give it the proper evaluation. Jim"

"The Equalizer sound a bit over the top, but interesting. I do carry Back Hills 115 grain JHP+P in my XR9-S and have found it to be one heck of a round. It certainly has one heck of a…"

"Hey Jesse.  I've got a to-do item on my list that includes getting in touch with Double Tap and asking if I can get some testing/evaluation samples from them.  If I can't get them for free, I was hoping they would at least let me…"

"Speer Lawman 115 grain is absolutely not good in the gun.  Two rounds, two case separations."

"I think this is a much bigger issue with new guns.  When I got my first gun, I was all excited as many people here are and I cycled the slide manually to get a close-up look of how the mechanism works.  Of course, the gun was stiff and…"

"what brand/model/grain weight ammo did you have problems with?  I'll update the list if it's not yet on the list. "

"Its dead.  I live in NYC so I can buy only only pistol every six months. As a result of some paperwork snafu I had to wait six months to pick up my XR9S. I just picked it up last week. The FFL has been holding it since Nov.  They saw the…"

"sure enough, was sold some cheap ammo for range shooting. last round in the first load that i put through separate. was i surprised! why anyone would by cheap problematic ammo is beyond my understanding"

"Thanks guys"

"+P is ok, +P+ is not."

"I know that it is already listed as compatible but I ran a box of Fiocchi 115gr through my Xr9s today with no issues at all.  I was actually quite apprehensive about shooting it because for the life of me, I can not see a crimp on that ammo, I…"

"Makes sense. The Critical Defense and Critical Duty models have the special flextip material in the hollow point to prevent plugging and control expansion. I presume Hornady experimented with different ratios of Metal to plastic for optimal…"

"Bruce - I'll definitely visit your contribution page.  I was thinking of sending you some rounds but I don't think we can send through the USPS or whatever.  It would just be easier to contribute $$.   Regarding the Hornady,…"

"I'm using the HST now but I hoping Bruce will test the Hornady Critical Duty in his next batch.  Maybe we could get another trio like Critical Duty, Black Hills, and Corbon or Buffalo Bore?  The Critical Duty performance during FBI…"

"For those that use CLPs - either Breakfree or EEZOX or whatever - Do you add any extra oil to any particular oil points or do you just squirt the CLP and let it dry?"
