380 911

hey everyone, new to the site, and proud owner of the .380 911.
question I have after shooting the first time with Sellier and Bellot range ammo, I had probably 6-8 miss fires.
after looking at the rounds could see a dimple in the primer.
I've used this same ammo in both of my 9mm with no issues.
any suggestions.

thanks in advance

Try different ammo, some primers are harder then others, if your issue happens with other ammo then it may be the pistol, I’m sure it’s just an ammo issue

I’d try a different brand of ammo and see what happens. If you have the same issues, it’s likely a problem with your pistol...contact Springfield.

If it runs the other ammo...then your pistol might not like S&B; it happens from time to time.

S&B is good ammo, though...but does occasionally have hard primer issues.

ammo WAS my first thought

S&B is extremely dirty ammo.
most of my 9mm‘s hate it
I stopped using it

May I also say this is gathered data from verified owners not from Springfield themselves.
