M&P9 jamming update - Winclean warning

[Canuck44]

RCMP go through a ton of the WinClean for practice and have nary a problem. sounds like you either got a bad batch or something else is in play.

Take Care

My Hi-powers and my old XD40 shot winclean just fine.

Put 8,000 WinClean 147 gr through my MP9 ... no problems!?

Semiwad? You cheap bastard! Get FMJ! Get out of the smoke cloud for a while!

Oh, and hi John. How ya been?

Good Dan - especially since I moved away from Sodom-on the-Ottawa. Now I'm nice and central- 30 minutes from the RA ,Smiths Falls, Grenville, and EOHC. How's BC? Have you learned to talk like a left coastie yet?

Just burning off the last of a few 000 SWC I got from Wolff- switching to metalclad...

Cheers

This is interesting, my 1911 has been jamming alot with WinClean. maybe I should try some other ammo. Unfortunately Stupid Kelowna only has 2 gun stores (If you want to call them that) and they barely carry any ammo (And the ammo they do carry is overpriced).

Sigh, gotta make a trip to Vernon or Kamloops.

Well, I went trough about 150-200 rounds of the stuff at my last outting and I had no failures. Go figure.

never tried winclean, but my m&P 40 hasn't had one failure yet. I love this pistol. I love the ergo's and it runs like a top.

The stuff I had seemed to be very low power.

Hmmm, funny you say that. I have around 3000 rounds of that stuff through a G17C and never had a problem. If anything I thought the rounds were kinda on the hot side rather than being low on power. Perhaps you got a bad batch.

I had the same problems with Winclean failing to feed properly in my M&P45. Seems to like the Frontier 200g truncated cone, but I haven't put that many rounds through it yet. Must be something about the chamber/ramp on the 45 that is a bit finicky.

sound like a bad lot no# , you should pull the bullet and see what how they loaded the rd with. I'm not sure about the primers that "win clean" use and their self life. As a rule i cycle through factory ammo very fast. I keep to American eagle cheap stuff for the 9.
