I was at the range over the weekend and talking with an "senior" who was next to me. I started the conversation because I noticed that he was loading his 1911 magazine with two different types of ammo. Basically he was alternating JHP and Ball into the mag. I asked him why and he indicated that in his mind it covered all his bases. If he didn't get the penetration he needed with the first JHP shot, his next shot would be ball and that he would definitely get penetration with that shot.
I've always loaded the same ammo in my mags but I'm wondering if many people on this board do the same thing. If so, what is your reasoning? My thoughts went more to reliability in feeding, but the guy said he never had a failure. He didn't either when I was there. His groups seemed pretty decent at 25 feet.
