I've got a bunch of Federal with SPP.
That's the ammo Wally world had when I bought my 1911 (June 2011).
Having no brass, I bought a few boxes of factory ammo.
Didn't even realize that LPP'd brass was available.
That works out well if you do not reload other calibers that use LPP. You only need to stock the SPP for all your handgun needs. As for me I am not so fortunate but it keeps another reloading option open if I should run out of LPP for some reason and still want to shoot 45 ACP.
I love them... The majority of the rounds I shoot take spp, only other lpp I shoot is 44 magnum. When I shoot my 45s I just shoot either spp or lpp, never both at the same time to help with keeping them seperate.
Of all the spent brass I go thru, I find less than 5% of the brass is SPP. I just toss them aside and load LPP for my .45 and SPP for my 9mm. They can be a pain if they get in the mix when loading ammo.
I've had problems with the spp 45s. inconsistent diameters of primer pockets, crimps, etc. ALL of the spp 45s I get now are tossed into the recycle bin. They're just NOT worth the trouble to me.
