We carried the latest and greatest and newest hot loads on duty. When we went to the Glocks, the quality of the 40cal reloads really went downhill and we stopped using reloaded ammo even in practice, A jam just stops the range period. It ended up being more expensive but easier to hold range session.By the way I am a graduate of The MO Highway Patrol Firearms Instructors School and never had reloaded ammo myself, When we get out your way I would enjoy just watching you.
