    Ammo for 1903/.32 and 1908/.380

    I am building my collection of Colt Model M's and would like to shoot them some, primarily to test function. I have new Wolff Springs in 2 and original springs in 2 others. I don't reload and am looking for advice on ammunition that would allow testing without stressing these 90-100 year old "jewels"

    One of my 1903s does not always like the Winchester White Box Flat Point loads. Other than that I feed them pretty much anything in the form of a metal jacketed round nose by a reputable maker. I never use any of the steel cartridge case ammo that is around. Gotta love these sweet little Colt pocket pistols.

    I've used Fiocci exclusively for all my .32 cal pistols. Never a problem.
