model7LSSShot my new pistol this weekend...
I am in love. New SA XD 4" 40 S&W. burned through 100 rounds in about 20 min. Absolutely awesome. This is the first handgun i have ever owned and now I am hooked. Just wish 40 ammo was as cheap as 22

guess ill have to start reloading it too
Good! Glad you are enjoying the 40S&W. You can get "white box" from WalMart. Not quite as cheap as it used to be, but still better than other places. Also, check out Georgia Arms. They sell new and reloaded ammo. I bought different bullet weights from them just to decide which shot best in my guns. They have 155, 165 and 180 grain reloads as I recollect, and, you have a supply of brass to get you going
after you have shot them. My guns shoot the 180's best.

dick broussardCongratulations on your XD. I have feed mine 135, 155, 165 and 180’s in different profiles and have had no failures of any kind. I am loading 165 Rainier with stiff charge of Long Shot and they run like a hose. Accuracy is minute of grapefruit.

fredj338The XD is a fine psitol. I bought a XD45Tac last year & it has quickly become one of my favorites, very accurate for a service pistol.
