As far as ammo goes, my 1911s shoot mostly my handloads with cast 200gr SWCs. I get a malfunction a couple times in a thousand rounds (maybe). I attribute this to my own less than absolute QC (I've only been loading for about three years, at about 1000-2000 rounds per year).
When I practice with my carry rounds (factor JHPs) I get 100% reliability.

Of the 25-ish (and counting) 1911s I've owned so far, Kimber is the only manufacturer I can say has never given me any troubles. I currently own four.1911s aren't unreliable, Kimbers are.
