.45 acp u.m.c. ammo.................

[markp]

  I have found some .45 acp  u.m.c.   230 gr hardball at a pretty good price for these days. Any expericance with   this ammo. I expect it would work but wondering if any one has used it.

I have used that ammo........its OK for practice, just dont look for much accuracy

I've used it in a XD-45, Kimber, and an FNP-45. No problems with feed or eject. Accuracy is good enough to do the job.

Thanks Dustyvance and fastbike. I think I will give it a try if its still on the shelf.

markp,
ANY available ammo you find on the shelf in .45acp from any major maker these days is good! Finding it at a reasonable price is just a bonus!! Hope it's still there, you snooze, you lose----------------------

Any one come across .45 brass that uses a small pistol primer? and why do they have them?

A friend of mine gave me some Speer 45acp brass with sp primers, I was told they used small primers because they dont make non-toxic large pistol primers, so the brass with small pistol primers are probably used for some type of clean-range indoor ammo with non-toxic primers.

If you can find ammo for your 45 ACP get it, the umc is not the best ammo, but it will work.
