With FMJ ammo, my CZ-97B is very reliable. Even with dirt in the action, as an impromptu test I performed proved. It even eats Wolf ammunition without a hitch.
However, I've had problems finding JHP ammo that will feed properly. Remember, I live in a small area, with one or two gun stores and a pretty anemic selection of ammo. Anything new I want to try I generally have to order.
I tested some black-box Winchester 230 grain once, but I can't remember the actual type.
185 Grain silvertips do not reliably feed.
230 grain Cor-Bon +Ps hardly even chamber.
230 Grain Triton .450SMC JHPs hiccup on occasion.
And that's about all I've tested. Should I send my gun back in to CZ-USA for a reliability tune, or are there JHP ammo brands you can recommend? +P is definately preferred.
