With the LCP the latter is paramount. This sweet CC seems to not like HP Ammo. I've learned that opinions can be hotly debated and bantered around to accommodate and appease those who feel otherwise...yet we all seek the same result...so I am totally baffled here. I own 2 LCP's w/the CTS. When I had both feed ramps polished to a mirror shine, I was told that 100% feed is NOT guaranteed with HP's and at that time I was running Federal ammo...also, I was told that FMJ would would run endlessly, and this past weekend it did...200+...the fellow who did my polishing is a true professional in all sense of the word...Truly. Anyway, Gotta be Me, so I've ordered 2 boxes (25ct) of Hornadys CDHPs and am looking forward to the final result...as I've read these were made most likely for the LCP(they don't have the typical HP ridge edge because they are filled otherwise)this should prove to be intresting. But Hey, I'm not a gun guy per say, having said that, all I want is sheer, 100% reliability. How 'bout you? So much talk about point of impact, and so little talk about point of exit.

Similar idea but a different execution. Pretty interesting, but I wonder how it compares with the Glaser Pow’RBall? Similar idea but a different execution.
