getting to the point of needing a stronger magazine spring. was the ftf in the govt' or the defender? looking forward to the 200 and 230, murf
Thank you for the report. Failures to feed might be a combination of the magazine and round. As you stated, the Defender fed, perhaps it has a stronger magazine spring. Of the hollow point rounds you tested, this one expanded quite well after going through clothing, which is all to the good.
