Federal Aluminum 45acp Ammo

[ESAFO]

yesterday i went to the range with a 9, .40 & .45, i ran brass & federal alluminum & since i don't reload there is no reason for me not to buy alluminum case ammo.
it was on mark almost exact to brass from the same distances.

I've shot both and zero issues in any of my Kahr 9's or 45's.

My CT45 functioned flawlessly with it.

No hesitation using any of the aluminum stuff.....the steel stuff is meh

I bought the CW45 a few days ago and on my first range trip ran 100 rounds of federal aluminum flawlessly! Not one hiccup. Great and cheap range ammo.

I shoot the heck out of it in all my 45s.

Runs great in my CW45.

yesterday local WM had a bunch of the 100rd boxes of aluminum on the shelf, it makes a great product for those who don't reload & just like to target shoot.

Nothing but brass for me................................................ .

I have several boxes of the the 45 230 that I ran through a new PM45 during break in....I had 3 ftf from light primer strikes.....I had zero issues with other brass cased ammo I used.....2 of the 3 ftf after numerous restrikes that looked to be sufficient to ignite primer.....I don't know whether the light strikes were primer related or gun related, but the brass cased ammo all had perfectly indented spent primers...

Sounds primer related to me.

If your getting sufficient hits, it should go.

I usually shoot brass of late but have no issued with the aluminum stuff. Shot a lot of it in the past.

[Bigdave35180]

Yes....I have shot a lot of it in my 1911's with no issues either, my Les Baer and Springfield Trophy Match especially love the stuff. I had never owned a Kahr and found an unusually great deal on a CM9 on Gunbroker, and loved it so much I immediately found another great deal on a PM45 and bought it...I love it!!! Low recoil impulse for such a light 45 and on our big steel plate range at the FOP, if I missed one I don't remember. Amazing how you can enjoy shooting a $300 pistol more than a 2K Baer....although I like them all. As soon as I get another couple hundred rounds through the PM45, and make sure no issues, it will be in my carry rotation for sure. I kinda feel about the Kahrs like I did about my Freedom Arms 454 after I got it....how have I not owned one of these in my 63 years !!!
