Colt Combat Commander 1911- which ammo to use

[warangelcometh]

Anyone out there with experience on the Colt Combat Commander 1911 in. 45 ACP that could tell me which ammo runs best thru it?

Thanks for the help.

Every gun is different. My guess is that something like WWB would run very well, or most of the other factory ball ammo.

get it out and shoot, i like 230 grain ball for range and 230 grain golden saber for defence, really the gun should eat about everything u put though it,

In my Commander length guns, I find that the 185 gr loadings give a bit more velocity from the shorter barrel...try Golden Saber 185 or Winchester Silvertip 185. The Corbon Powerball loading in 165 gr looks promising also.

Combat Commanders were issue weapons for some deputies in Whitley county, I carried one until mine regular issue (full size series 80) came back from Colt. It ate anything and everything.

Mine is not picky, but it really likes the old 230gr WW SXT.
