    I need to get into the habit of spending 2 hrs a week reloading.

    I feel the need to shoot my new Springfield XDM E compact .45 a bit more before counting on it.

    It's been excellent so far. (Except for the reloads I made too long and the optic screws getting loose)

    After hundreds of lead flat nose it's kinda gummy. I wiped the feed ramp but other than that will keep oiled and keep shooting.

    Speaking of recoil, this gun shoots softly. S&B 230 gr fmj (kind of weak factory ammo) and my reloads especially. (200 gr 800 fps) But even the hotter stuff isn't bad. (Underwood 185 gr 1100 fps)

    Shoots more softly than my full-size M&P 2.0 .45.

    Makes me wonder if I should have just got the 10 mm version.
