M&P 45 and Cast SWC Bullets?

[mmattockx]

Is anyone here running cast SWC bullets in their M&P? Any feeding issues? I am looking at the M&P and have a pile of SWC bullets stocked up, so that is what it would be fed with.


Thanks,
Mark

I ran about 3,000 200gr LSWC through an M&P45, no issues - just make sure OAL is correct and you're good to go. The barrel has conventional rifling, so no issues there.

I shoot SWC in my M&P40. No problem at all. Don't have a M&P in 45 yet, but will buy one on EE one of these days.

I ran a test recently in a dozen different 45s of different bullets,powders and powder charges. Most of the pistols shot best with just one load. 200 SWC over 4.3 gr of TiteGroup.

I have had great results shooting cast round nose and SWC out of my M&P 45.. No issues with feeding at all.
