R51 Defense ammo suggestions
Posted: Sat Nov 04, 2017 2:54 pm
So what defensive ammo functions well in your R51?
I’ve had some issues with Hornady Critical Defense. Sometimes the round jumps out of the mag and hangs on the top of the barrel. I think maybe the nickel case is too slippery and slides forward in the mag as the round above it is stripped and fed. I might try brass cased SD ammo because regular FMJ ammo feeds fine. Or maybe the OAL is too short on the Hornady ammo.
