I usually get CCI Blazer for the XD-9, and she loves 'em. Never had a jam, missfire, anything. Yeah, the rounds are dirty and I have to clean her afterwards, but the price savings is worthit.

Monarch's were about 50 cents cheaper this time so I decided to try them instead, and ended up giving a full and 3/4 full box away at the range, as I got 10 rounds in and the 11th jammed, 12th jammed, and 13th round misfired. I wasn't very happy.

So I do advise against Monarch for future ammo purchases. Couldn't even call them "ok" quality.
What is a jam?
Te, a drink with jam and bread... :lol:

I've heard nothing but bad things about Monarch ammo though...

"The King of ammo!" ;-)
