Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns 1911's and hollow points

Do modern 1911's feed hollow point ammunition reliably?

Have you found any particular brand to be problematic or perhaps ones that feed more reliably?

Or is this going to be a trail and error thing find the right ammo that feeds reliably? This could get very expensive trying to find the right self defense ammo.

A side question. 45acps are pretty slow. Is there enough velocity there to allow the hollow point to expand?

Thanks for your feedback!
