Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Feeding hollowpoints.
Posted: 9/18/2005 3:45:06 PM EDT
I have a RRA 9mm upper.  It sits on a Stag lower with a VM Hytech block.  Hollowpoints are not well liked by this set up.  What can I do, if anything, to get HPs to feed reliably?  Do some do better than others?

My 6450 will feed anything, but I would try Ranger SXT or such that have a hollow point that isn't very large.  That is, they are closer to the shape of a FMJ round than say a Golden Saber.

Just my .02

The COLT pattern is not know to eat hollow point reliably...  even the slip of paper in som the COLT factory mag sleeve states something to the effect of "feeds balls only".

I've been lucky then; I've yet to find any rounds that fail to feed in her.
