After watching you video, this is not comforting to read. I use Critical Defense .45ACP/185gr. Feeds fine, but the ultimate test is on the receiving end.

Just remember it's one make-shift test of one round of one caliber of one weight. In other words, it's not scientific by any stretch. All I can say is try for yourself.
