Finally Found 9mm Ammo that Runs Flawlessly - so far.

[ttarp]

I just ordered a few boxes of PPU that were advertised as flat nose, but when they showed up they were standard round nose. I imagine it's just a mixup of terminology, I'm not even sure they make a flatnose bullet in .30 Luger.

I have a byf 42 that so far has run any and all ammo i have put through it. Wwb remmington federal etc the only that i stopped using was perfecta as some boxes were mild loads while others would produce alot more recoil and muzzle flash. The best price vs reliable ammo thats clean and well made was lax ammo its under 200 for 1000rds. Ps i only use 115gr

I agree with ttarp, no PPU in .30 L with a flat nose.

Fiocchi does load a fmj truncated cone 9mm, no better and maybe worse than the RM fmj. I thought it might work better through a drum, but it does not.
