If you don't plan to reload, CCI has given me great results.If you do plan to reload, S&B is fairly inexpensive.It's also sealed for long term storage.

Quoted: I like the Fiocchi from [url]www.ammoman.com[/url] The CCI I am thinking of was 38, not 45acp though, so maybe that makes a difference? |

Ditto re: the Fiocchi from Ammoman. My Kimber Custom II has digested approx. 1000 rds of it, no problems.

My Kimber Gold Match is such a great gun it will cycle anything. Use -800 fps target rounds which I load and have fired approx 400 rounds with the stock spring. It likes higher power loads also.

Has anyone shot this MFS stuff? I'm thinkin' when you consider what we've paid for the gun-how cheap is too cheap?

Have any of my fellow members tried the Wolf? I'm wondering how that is. I don't think that the mild steel case will be too much of an issue, as the US issued steel cased .45 ACP ammo in the past. |

I've shot several thousand rounds of Wolf 45 out of my Glock 21. The gun runs the stuff like a champ, of course Wolf is kind of crappy, somewhat inaccurate ammo. I have never chronographed it, but I suspect it varies in velocity more than most ammo. It's is also fairly dirty ammo.
Basically less powerful and accurate ammo than Fiocchi (or other quality ammo) but for plinking and blasting away at stuff for fun it's a great choice because it's "good enough" and a lot cheaper. |

First. Cheap is for plinking .Don't trust you'r life to cheap ammo. Wolf is a great value but very under powered. You can get US GI but its usually mildly corrosive. S&B & fiocci are good plinking/value choices. For self defense in my Sig 220 I carry Aguila .45 IQ.

Most recent Wolf .45, Centerfire Systems $99.97 w/free ship on the case purchase.
WWII US GI 230Gr. (Nice & Hot)& mildly corrosive. $80 per. 750 rnd. case Also Centerfire systems I have more on order right now. The Aguila I have to special order out of Texas. It's pricey at $8 or 9 per. 25 rnd box. But I really like the IQ round. It's hot, accurate, and frangible. In 27 years of shooting .45's this the best defense round I've seen so far. (IMO) |
