When I received my Colt 1911 (LW Commander) after my dad died, I also got a box of Semi Wad Cutter ammo (Lead, flat-topped) that fed terribly (there were only a couple rounds gone, so I suspect Dad hated them as well). One of the first things I learned about 1911's is to pay attention to how well the ammo feeds, and with this particular gun, it needs rounded top ammo or it will have consistent feed issues.
Now I'm looking for some good reliable personal defense ammunition. I want to do what I can to avoid the over-penetration issues of Full Metal Jacket rounds. I'm not looking for the most expansion possible; my main concern is, first and foremost, reliable feed, and secondarily, I want reasonable expansion, with low over-penetration issues.
Any brands / types I should consider? I'm not opposed to picking up a few experimental boxes to try out at my home range, I just need some recommendations.
Thanks in advance for your help.
