I had 15 rounds of 115 grain American Eagle in mag #2. They weren't locking open the slide on the final round. And a box of 124 grain American Eagle to test. 115 grain Federal white box and 147 grain American Eagle have given no problems in the past.
I suspect American Eagle has a lighter powder charge compared to Federal, but I have no chrono to test that theory.
Except my Federals are FMJ. Same company, different practice ammo formulas, I guess.
So let's test...
Nope. Fails on both. Only worked to lock back once on 124, right after a re-lube. Gonna have to test 147 another time. Maybe a cleaning first...

Wilson's at 1,700 rounds since last lubing. I'll try some standard pressure 115gr loads in it and see how they run.
FWIW, the Federal AE 115gr I ran in the Canik averaged 1128 fps, and the Federal white box RTP 115gr in the Ruger 9E was 1096 fps. Seems pretty similar.
