I took my G23 to the range today. I just installed a new Rocket 3.5lb. connector.
I fired about 150 rounds. Ran great. I had some old Winchester White Box I thought I would try. I had 3 Failure to Fires. Never had this happen before. I tried my carry ammo and it functioned fine. Do you think it could be the WWB? I've never had this weapon cough at all. And I was running a Rocket before I installed this one. No problems. |
| Yep, Winchester white box although makes good range ammo because it is cheap, It is cheap for a reason. It's probably the most bottom of the barrel ammo you can buy. I agree with what was stated earlier, Winchester should take their name off of it and just let it be sold as plain black lable ammo... |
| Had a bad primer on a WWB 40 recently in my Styer M40. Gun went click. Manually popped the round out and kept shooting. Inspected it later and sure enough a nice strike right on the back. Loaded it and tried again... click. At that point I gave up and gave it to a shop worker for disposal. It was the only one I had a problem with of the 300 I shot. Sounds like you got a bad batch... |

Indeed. That shit's been the source of a few KBs in rifles and pistols lately. I trust my own reloads FAR more than WWB............and they're cheaper.  think about reloading - even if you only shoot a few boxes a year .......... I keep telling myself I need to invest in a reload set up. |
