Is RANGER T Series ammo impossible to get?

I wouldn’t be pissed. I just want a box or two of RA45T. Grant used to have shit piles of it, but I didn’t have an M&P 45 at the time so I didn’t pick any 45 ammo up.

ATK supplies Cabela’s as one of their top 3 commercial customers… so I can just pay a little too much for Gold Dots until WIN gets their asses in gear.

Well, I ordered on the 28th, and a big old box of ammo showed up today, April 1st, so I’m pretty happy so far.

I just happen to be sitting on more RA45T and RA45TP than I’ll ever need.
shot about 450 rds of both in the last month and had 1 failure to fire with the +P

Why shoot so much of it??.. or any duty/carry load for that matter? :confused:

After reading a few threads in other forums about FTF due to hard primers { or a weak firing pin spring in my glock ,who knows}
I thought It would be a good idea to do a little backyard research.
I will be doing the same with P45HST1 and P45HST2 next,but not as many rounds.

How many rounds of the ammo one intends to carry do you recommend be tested in the gun before depending on it?

Depends on the gun I guess. A 1911 can never really be trusted in my experience. A glock or M&P that will run ball ammo probably doesn’t need a whole lot of Duty ammo run through it in my oppinion. :confused:

“We need to get over the romance of carrying a WWI era pistol, and get on to the business of shooting smelly bad guys in the face with a modern handgun.” :wink:

Amen! Truer words have never been spoken! :smiley:

I shot this round of RA45T into a phone book some of the talons did not uncurl(2) all the way so I took a set of Pliers and bent them out just to get a ideal Of the round

Phone books don’t reveal much. There was a dude on TOS who had a “buddy” pick up his 9mm glock that was laying on the bed. He discharged the weapon into the back of the guy’s arm (he was sitting at a computer desk back to the shooter)

Anyway, the ranger bullet bloomed perfectly in the guy’s arm. :eek: He posted pics and everything.

I’ve bought quite a bit of 230gr standard pressure .45 from them in the last year or so. It’s always back-ordered, but they have always delivered (even if it took a month or two). Haven’t bought any 9mm 127+P+ from them, because I have plenty.
