Well Slavex just had a problem in his gun with one and they did have a recall for squib loads but I haven't seen any of those lot numbers here, otherwise I never had a problem with any of their ammo. .45acp, .455, 9mm and 12guage

i used there jhp for a while
if u have plastic or fiber optic sites for ur gun dont use it as they will melt
same goes for ported barrels way to hot for that its blinded me a cpl times
but when i run that stuff through my beretta or 9mm 1911 its awesome
