I've fired a couple of hundred rounds of Silver Bear without any problems. I'm using Wolf springs.

I don't have my P64 yet, but I have fired plenty of Silver Bear and Brown Bear 9x18mm ammo with my PA-63 and Makarovs. I have had no light strikes with either "Bear." I did have light strikes firing the PA-63 with Wolf ammo. About 1 out of every 6 was a light strike. I would fire again with the same round and pistol and the round would fire. I finally decided Wolf primers were a tad harder than Silver Bear or Brown Bear and quit buying the Wolf. I have 5,000+ rounds of Silver and Brown Bear. It works every time!!

I have shot 500 rnds silver bear through my p-64 with 18lb hammer spring with no problems what so ever! Strike is good with nice solid primer indentation. I find this stuff pretty clean and accurate. No eject problems.....buy it while it's still cheep and available.
