use of cartridges

Hi,

I'd like to know what is the best cartridge to use with luger.

Some people said to me that FI0CCHI (115)were the good one

and some other said that i must never use FIOCCHI but use S&B.

What do you think ?

Thanks

Ron,

I have used Winchester 115gr Full Metal Jacket exclusively for about a year with no problems of any kind. They feed reliably and they can be found at $11.00/100 in some stores. This ammunition has been recommended repeatedly by other members of the Luger Forum. However, I am sure that some of the other types should do just as well.

Fiocchi 9mm ammo seems to be pretty good but the 30 Luger Fiocchi seems a little light to me. The Winchester load is good in 9, I have been using the Remington UMC yellow box 124s which are pretty inexpensive, work well and feature the 124 gr FMJ my Lugers seems to like. Thor

I argee with Luke regarding the Walmart Ammo. I use both Winchester and Remington UMC in 115 gr with excellent results.

Hi Ron,

Use either one - both Fiocchi and Sellier & Bellot are loaded to C.I.P. standards.

Best regards,

Kyrie
