I have some self-defense loads ordered, and some hi-cap mags to go with, and it seems prudent to test them all together. The question is, at what point do you consider you can count on it all? I am not in a position to run thousands of rounds through the weapon just to test. Over time, sure. I expect to practice with target ammo mostly, but keep working the mags. And every once in a while, prove that the more expensive defense loads are still working.
