Does anyone know if the Rami can safely shoot Corbon Power Ball (1325fps) without damage

I don't have a .40, not familiar with .40 range ammo fps, but that seems pretty hot. My rami 9mm is comfortable to shoot, except for what that curvy ass trigger does to my finger, but I can imagine that .40 ammo in a rami would be like an m-80 going off in your hand. I think the rami would hold up though.

Assuming that is actually +p which I don't see it listed on Corbon's website here is the FAQ's from CZ:

Use it sparingly is the guidance.

• "Without damage" seems to be the operative phrase here. Do we mean immediate damage (like blowing up), or simply faster wear? I'm not aware of any machine in the world that you can run harder, and by doing so make it last longer. Undoubtedly, there will be excessive wear, but to what extent no one can say. Would I use it for target ammo? No way. Would I carry 6 rounds in my mag? That's an entirely different question.

• The 2 most important parts of SD ammo are: 1. Does the ammo feed reliably in my gun? And, 2. can I hit my target? To answer the first question I'm going to need to shoot something on the order of 30-40 rounds from several mags before I know for sure that it feeds reliably. The second question can only be answered on the range. I consider that most of this specialty ammo is over-powered, and the proof of this is 40cal ammo moving at 1325fps. High power leads to excessive muzzle rise, so are you willing to change out your front sight?

• And then as discussed extensively in the Stickies, does the Corbon ammo even fit the CZ chamber? The only safe thing to do is to take your barrel with you when you go ammo shopping.


Bottom Line: I have more questions than answers.
