Maxxtech 9mm, 115gr FMJ problems

[tjg63]

Anyone experiencing failure to fire with Maxxtech 9mm 115gr FMJ?

Three different firearms - M&P 9, Sig M18 and Sig P365X. I sent an inquiry to Maxxtech and they responded requesting the lot number which I provided. Waiting for another response from them.

About 350 rounds through three firearms and 13 failures to fire. It's not the gun. Spoke to folks at the local range and they have heard about this problem.

this is why when people say its not worth reloading 9mm because factory is so cheap I say, I still pull the handle.
shoot it up and use the FTF as dummy rounds and practice malfunction drills.
Then never by it again.

I recently shot about 75 rounds, though 2 P365s, of Maxx Tech 124 gr Boxer primer FMJ with zero issues.

This doesn't sound as safe as sending the FTF back to Maxxtech.

Just to clarify, I am not saying one should hang onto rounds that do not fire and use as dummy rounds what I was saying is when you have a round that doesn't fire just get after it and get the gun back in action.

Friend of mine just recently started shooting these in steel plate competitions. Zero complaints
