IMHO for autoloaders whether you choose factory fodder or handloads, you should run at a bare minimum 100 rounds of the load your going to carry through your gun to be assured that the gun and ammo is 100% with that combo, but better yet is running 500 of those loads through the gun and every mag you'll be using.


Thanks. I agree with everything you said.

Gun Shows are almost as comical as boat ramps in the Spring.
