Feeds Great

Not an issue with my Ultra, feeds great all JHP that I have bought or loaded.

You've never had any issues with a feed or extract with your Ultra? Are you running all stock or have you changed recoil spring or magazines? What magazines do you use? I have an Ultra that I've run all sorts of HP, FMJ of all brands, but it seems to have issues with extraction. I am using the Kimber Tac Mags. The other day I had 3 mags in a row run fine with HP, the first two mags with FMJ had extraction issues. I've probably only run about 500 rounds through it since I've owned it.

Yep, those are the same Hogue grips; they're awesome. Here they are on my RIA Tactical.

As for Papa Grumpy picking a Kimber full size sounds good to me. I've heard the Ultra size (3" barrel) Kimber's sometimes have feed issues. I had a RaptorII Pro (4" barrel) and never had an issue with it. I like Kimber, Smith &Wesson, Springfield Armory . . and Rock Island.

Yours and mine are the same while Ringo's are I think an older model. And yes, I plan on them for my RIA also.

I like the SS because its easy to clean.
