I bought 250 rounds of the Samco stuff. It functions in the M1900 and '06 AE I've tried it in. The AE will be used in tomorrow's IDPA shoot, instead of the usual 1911. I've been practicing a bit with the ammo, and am down to enough for the 90 rounds needed, plus a reserve, most of which I'll use up tomorrow. I think my "groups" are a little tighter since I've been using it, but probably a big part was the more frequent practice--I have nowhere to go but up! I'm saving the brass with intent of converting its weird-o priming system. If some of these get lost in the grass at the match, they won't bother me so much. Economically, a good deal.
I hope someone contributes a more technically explicit review of its ballistic performance!
