Hi all,
I've got a Sig 1911 5" model in stainless. I love the thing but it has given me issues with rounds that won't seat completely in the chamber 1-2 times out of 150/200 rounds with WWB. After a slap on the back of the slide, the round will go into the chamber and shoot fine.
I sent it back to Sig and they said there were no issues with the pistol using 90 Speer Lawman 230 gr. FMJ rounds. I've put about 700 rounds through it. I explained in my note that I was using WWB, and they did a test with Speer. It sort of befuddles me that I want to shoot the lowest cost ammo in the thing and they tested it with a different ammo.
So my question is, should I keep at the issue with WWB or just change my preferred ammo to Federal or Remington UMC? or should the thing be feeding WWB all day without any issues? I'm basically starting my reliability count all over again from zero rounds...
Thanks for any advice...
