Hey folks,

Gathering some intell on possible loads for my new XDS. It's not too fond of my Kimber loads. What do you folks use/like in yours?
 
I'm just using factory 230 grain stuff for now, works for me.
 
I use 230 grain bullets with a middle of the range charge of whatever appropriate powder I happen to have on hand, and have never had any problems.
 
Ranger T 230+P, or Gold Dot equivalent. I love Federal HST, but my XD45C hiccuped a few times with it. The gun has been 100% with every other round.
 
Nosler 185 custom competition over 9.0 gr accurate no. 5 at 1.215", 875 fps, for plinking
Hornady xtp 185 over 9.5 gr accuarte no. 5 at 1.215" , 900 fps, for carry
