Yep, the pistol ammo is pretty questionable. The .380 fmj that I bought for my wife's bersa is the only thing that ever failed to feed in that gun. The .40 wasn't much better in my hi-power, the case necks were pretty rough. The .223 steel case fmj and the brass case sp functioned fine in my mini 14 ranch rifle and shot to the same POA as the reminton 55 gr.
