Shoots straight, plenty of recoil, very reliable feeder..in fact Ive never had a failure to feed...even with all the handloads ive shoved into the gun, always feed fine and always went bang.
I have a dons guide rod and 22lb wolf spring.....has a bit of muzzle flip, but nothing too extreme. The 5" model would probably help out with a bit more weight. I believe in the 5" sprinco makes one of their recoil reducer assemblies. I guess I should note I have a 4" Service model.
Other than that not much more to say about it. Powerful round that has been reliable in the XD setup. Reloading for it is a snap too, 9mm flat point bullets, case of your choice, 13.5-14 grns of AA#9....put it together with a decent crimp and your done. With that amount of powder it should be close to a compressed load and with a decent crimp there should be little to no setback issues at all.
