[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3816644, member: 15054"] All valid points and very valid if you shoot store ammo. I do not shoot store ammo and never even bought any 40 or 45 store ammo in my life. I shoot soft powder coated cast at slow velocities. These slides are spares and will first be used for experimental purposes for my slow loads. I did make some ammo for the 40 starting at book minimum for 180 gr cast and it packed quite a wallop compared to my 230 or 250 gr cast loads for the 45. I did not care for the recoil of the 180 I am not saying it was brutal but it was too much for can plinking. I will shoot with heavy and light slide and see if there is a difference in accuracy -velocity or recoil. I will then inspect for any cracks etc. Hand loads in my savage rifles voids warranty also. Not worried about a warranty. And I do not feel these will break but we will see. [/QUOTE]
