WWB or Remington UMC...

In your opinion, which .45ACP has better reliability, WWB fmj or Rem. UMC. Both 230gr. Thanks.

Every gun has it's own preference. Whatever's cheapest.

Can't speak about .45 Auto, but in my experience WWB is a tad cleaner and maybe slightly more reliable than UMC, at least in .40S&W.

I have yet to have a failure with either. It depends on your gun IMO.

My Colt Commander will eat either. I feed it more WWB than UMC though.

Thanks for the insight! They both run through my Glock, but the WWB is less expensive, so I thought if I wasn't going to gain anything with the Rem I would just use WWB. Thanks again.

WWB is a little hotter than Rem UMC and the brass is a little beefier. I think it is a slightly better product, so if available and at a lesser cost, you have got a winner there.

I would have to agree about the brass.

I notice no difference in performance.
