Most of them were Speer Lawman 115gr fmj's with some mags of 115gr Silvertips, 115 Federal Hi Shoks, and 115 fmj Fed American Eagle. My ammo locker was stuffed with the Speer because one of the local dealers is sellling 1000 round cases for a great price. The Speer is actually pretty hot stuff.
Not a single bobble, jam, misfeed or any other malfunction. The little Shield just chugged along and got real, real, hot. I took it home, broke it down and cleaned it. No sign of wear points or peening. This is one solid little pistol. I have 500 rounds more of the speer which i will send thru the Shield by weeks end.
I am going to break this pistol or it will break me financially-stay tuned.

Have you tried any HP's other than the Silvertips? I handled one today for the first time and like it a lot. I didn't buy it as it was $430 plus tax and I think there are better deals to be had. This particular dealer is always a little high,but he's the only one locally who had one. I'll wait.
