p95 · September 30, 2012, 02:19 AM

My brother and I were out shooting today, and I had my Ruger p95 and a box of federal champion 9mm 100 value pack. I had already shot a mag of hornady critical defense with no problems. Then load up a few mags of the federal. I got through one mag then I start getting failure to ejects and failure to feed. First thought was maybe the gun was dirty, stripped it down it was clean. So I load back up and ftf fte start again. At one point I put one in the chamber and dropped the mag out and fired, everything seemed fine until I racked the slide and out pops the empty casing. Anyway I said all that to ask this, did I just get a bad batch of ammo or is this a common problem with federal?
