break in with cheap factory box ammo. heck even cheap reloads will do.

but once you are using the firearm for home defense, buy the best stuff out there.


Watch how often you rechamber a round. After a few rechamberings, use it for target practice. From what I read: Many guns push the bullet a little bit into the case when you chamber them. Do it enough times and the pressure can go quite high when fired.

A friend has cheap rounds for the firing range, and quality expensive ones for self defense. When he has a failure at the range, he tries to clear it as fast as possible without thining and continue shooting. He uses the good stuff precisely because it doesn't jam in his gun.
