New cw 380.

[kcarr65]

I have read multiple posts about performa ammo not working in this gun. I had a box of this before I bought my cw. Well I tried it and it won't chamber at all. What ammo can I use to break in this gun ? Thanks in advance.

I ran about 100 rounds of Winchester 95 gr range ammo and 50 Winchester Train and Defend FMJ through mine this afternoon.

Winchester white box ? Any problems ?

[John05.636]

It was the white Winchester box that the range ammo was in.

Correction: I rechecked and it was the I shot 100 rounds Federal Range & Target ammo. I did shoot another 50 of the Winchester Train & Defend without failures too.

Did the gun work correctly? Any problems at all ?

Kcarr, each and every one of these guns will feed, function, and fire differently so get a few different boxes and start the break in process from there. Obviously shoot what you intend to carry also, however kahr won't even entertain any issues until after the 200rd break in period.

I owned a few p380's and had some real issues with them and others got good ones right from the factory. The smaller these little things are the more trouble they are to get them to operate and be reliable.

Federal American Eagle FMJRN in 90-95gr should be fine for the first 200 shots.

Joemsj51 have you tried that ammo in a cw 380?

[joemsj51]

Hickok45 and Jeff from Gunblasts have, in their various Kahr youtube reviews.

PMC Bronze worked well in my P380 as did CCI Blazer Brass.

I shot Federal American Eagle, Winchester white box, Freedoms Munitions, and some local reloads in my CW380. Only issues I had were from the reloads

Ty all for the replies. I bought a box of Remington the other day. I'll try them and all of you're suggestions.
