On one of my 4th of July sales I neglected to notice that the Winchester Target & Practice 9 mm 115gr FMJ rounds in the order weren't the usual RN that I usually order, but were instead FMJ-FN (flat nose). With them today I experienced malfunctions, many malfunctions. My stone reliable P320 AXG Legion today threw a dozen or more live round stovepipes, and my P365 X-Macro locked the slide open after each and every round. When I switched back to my usual RN 115gr FMJ they both returned to their regular flawless operation, as with my 127gr poly reloads. I do see these FN are significantly shorter OAL than all my other rounds. Could the difference in shape, or OAL really cause all this, or did I get 250 bad rounds? I've never seen these short Winchester 115gr FMJ-FN rounds before - what are they for?
