    Default XD compact 45 with 200gr SWC

    I'm having problems with shooting plated 200gr SWC. It seems like more of an extraction problem than a feeding problem. I am shooting AA#5 with an OAL of 1.200". If the gun cycles the rim of the cartidge has considerable damage to it from the extractor.

    Does anyone have any suggestions??

    Thanks

    Forgot to add, they cycle fine in my 1911

    I called and talked to Springfield about this problem. Their customer service says not to shoot SWC's in the XD. I explained that they should print this in their manual since I have around 1500 rds of 200 SWC's that I can not shoot in the XD but they cycle fine in my 1911. They also do not recomend shooting Wolf ammo.

    On another note I was checking over my mags and found 4 out of the 5 cracked on the top back. They sent me a FEDEx label and I mailed them out yesterday. They will be replaced but it will take about 4 weeks.

    Kudos to great Springfield CS
