Hi all,
This is my first post here, and I have read that some older handguns cant shoot & chamber hollow point rounds, is this a fair statement?
As you can see in my title I have an old (1916) Colt .25 pocket auto (6 rd magazine).
I have shot a few rounds of Hornady .25 XTP hollow points, without any bad results, in fact I was very impressed with these rounds. I had also read that I needed to run at least 200 of these rounds through the .25 to be assured they would be reliable.
Do you agree with this?
I'll have other questions regarding my new Ruger SR40. But want to stick with the Colt .25 info for now!
Thank you for any answers you can help with, and all opinions are welcome!
