Okay, I know this has been covered many times, but I am lazy(don't judge me) and with this stupid run on ammo, I can't find the Blazer Brass that I have come to rely on for flawless feeding. I have tried the Windchester in the white box and the Fituchi as well and both were complete fails. What are you guys using to reliably practice with? Just want something that doesn't jam and cost me $20 just to find out it is crap in my gun.

I've seen a bunch of Remington UMC lately. Walmart is discontinuing the 250 round Mega Packs. My local store had a dozen boxes.

UMC has a round nose bullet and feeds smoothly like Blazer Brass does. I, too, have had issues with WWB, but mostly in my P380.

I ordered a case recently. They are out now but had a resuply earlier this week. Runs about $19 a box

Be careful before you buy a bunch. My CW45 won't feed some ammo, even factory, because the chamber is too short.

Rem UMC fed much better than WWB in mine. So much so I ordered 1000rds from Natchez

Thanks for the recommendations guys! I'll go out and try and find some of them.

Just passed the 200 round mark on my new P45.
Federal Premium 230 gr FMJ seems Ok. One Failure To Feed out of 20 rds fired.
meh.
One is too many.

Ironically, Russian made, steel cased TulAmmo 230 gr FMJ ran surprisingly well. Two FTF's out of 50 rounds.
(The manual says avoid steel cased ammo. Go figure.)
I have yet to find something that runs flawlessly.
Very finicky gun.

I've had more FTF's in 8 days with this gun than I have had in 8 years with my Springfield Armory XD45. :(

The tulammo .45 I bought for my CW45 was too long, or some of it was out of the box I bought from Walmart, it fed fine but some rounds wouldn't let the slide close completely, I went through that box with quite a few malfunctions, won't be buying anymore!

Glad to see good things said about Remington UMC because I just bought 2- 250 round boxes.
Got my P45 back from Kahr. Sent to them 10/14 after putting over 500 rounds through it, got it back today(11/7). Gonna try it tomorrow after work.
They put about 260 rounds through it with NO failures of any kind.
Pshh. Figures.
Now I look like a paranoid, Hypochondriac, novice. I hope they're right. I really want to like this gun but I'm a bit skeptical right now.

I've never heard of Fituchi, but I do use Fiocchi.............works fine in all of my firearms..................
