Hey everybody! I took my Kimber Stainless Gold Match II to the range and decided to eat up some ammo I picked up on the cheap at Wal-Mart. It was some TulAmmo in 230gr round nose. I was getting a TON of blast residue and a fat ball of smoke off each shot but in the end I posted up a 2" group at 25 meters in the standing (with one little guy who ran about 3" off on me ). I ran 100 rounds total through the pistol using Wilson combat 7rd mags and ProMag 8rd mags. No jams, no misfeeds, no misfires. All in all I was impressed but I dont think I will buy anymore due to some harsh looking marks on the spent "brass", im not a gunsmith but I can forsee a broken extractor with continued use of that kind of ammo. I wouldnt see it being a problem in my XDm though, in fact I wouldnt mind saving the money. Also Steel makes for easier cleanup in the desert (old speaker magnet hooked to some fishing line )

Otherwise Enjoy!
