Well it looks like i am in for a rough time with my XD45. The problem is that this things eats ammo like a pig!! It keeps putting holes where i like them and its eating all my ammo. I am so very happy i have a progressive press or i would be in trouble! Today i went out to shoot and took 150 rounds with me and in a just no time they were gone and it wanted more in a bad way. We were plinging shooting old pop cans and it was smacking them with a vengance. I think its pouting now that its back in the case..... what am i to do with it???

All I can say is it was very boring not having any problems. No FTFs No FTEs everytime you pull the trigger it gos BANG!! Now thats a great feeling. I shot 100 rounds of Win.White Box 230gr FMJ ball and some Win. Personal Protection 230gr JHP. Also a few of my high priced Rem. Golden Saber 230gr JHP. Tried one handed and limp wristing not a problem. Trigger felt really nice the XD was very eazy to control in rapid fire no jumping around. Both provided highcap Mags worked A OK and they were fairly eazy to load full at 13rds with just my fingers. Try that with a Glock highcap Mag. I was not trying to get really good groups but the XD shoots really good better then I can shoot it.

I am very happy with how this 45 works. And when I got home it was a snap to take it down and clean. Was finished in 5 Min.s It's so well designed. Anyway I ordered a Comp-Tac Pro Undercover holster like I use for my Glock and Kimbers and I say the XD-45 is good to go. I will make it my carry handgun.
