The only FTF I'ver ever had or seen, factroy or reloads, were due to poor pin stikes. The reloads all either fired on the second click, indicating the primer may not have been properly seated, OR they fired properly an another firearm.
I and a buddy shot some of my .45ACP stuff in his new Glock last summer. He had maybe a 5% failure rate, including the factory ammo he had. Some fired on the second effort, some didn't. I ran them through my 1911 and all went as planned.
Before his purchase, a quick look at some factory ballistics tables had proved to him that the 9mm he started looking at was/is no more than a .38Spec.+P loaded with light bullets! He IS a fairly good shot so he really didn't feel the need for a huge mag capacity that would let him maybe miss any potential "targets" to death with high speed ammo, nor would he need to use a lot of light bullets in hopes of pounding them to death with something like a small hammer.
I TRIED to get him to look at some 1911s after he setteled on the .45 but the Glock's safety and legend of working with any ammo without jams drug him the wrong way. Well, at least he listened to me about the right cartridge for his new home/self defense pistol. In an hour or so of shooting, he had a couple of stove-pipe jams, factory stuff, not my hard cast SWCs. And none of the dozen VERY expensive "Black Talon" rounds he had bought would feed. Those big, wide open HP bullets hit the feed ramp and just stopped but the ONE I tried in my GI 1911 fed fine.
Ok, ok, it's all just a personal point of view! You use what you wish and be happy with it. I just hope you never really have to defend your life or family with a 9mm OR a .38, fancy +P HP ammo or not! If you do, I hope the goblins are wimpy. Or that you get a .45 first.
???? How the smell did I get here from fail to fire duds? Oh, well....
