Has anyone used S&B's Range Safe Ammo in their XD? I was at a pistol class yesterday and had FTE many times with my XD Service. Then ran a mag of WWB through it and had no problem. I will bring some WWB for the second day of this class today. I will let you all know what happens.

I've used Winchester/Olin's with no issue. So it's not some sort of broad range safe ammo issue.

I apologize for jumping in on your thread, but as a first time owner I am still trying to learn some of the lingo. Can you tell me what WWB means?

WWB = Winchester White Box. I don't thinki the box actually says "white box", but it usually means the 100 round winchester value packs that are packed in white boxes. Typically Walmart has the best prices on these.

Let me add a few more details in here. S&B = Sellier and Bellot 9mm, Copper Plated Steel Case, Range Safe Ammo.

Pistol class got cancelled today but will resume on the 22nd. Also to clarify I've been using WWB with no problems.

Many gunshave problems with steel cased ammo like Wolfe I would assume S&B steel case would be the same.
