Update on the reman ammo.
It shoots great, feels normal, no jams (250 rds), no sparks flying. I shot some really good groups, like 1.5-3 inches, first time I ever hit all 15 shots in the bullseye.
The only issue is that they seem quite dirty. After shooting, a lot of gunpowder or soot sprayed out of the ejection port and got all over my arms, esp my right arm facing the port. This has never happened before to this extent. I showered with soap immediately after I got home. Cleaned the guns later, and they had quite a bit of soot on them. Maybe more than steel, but hard to make an accurate comparison. At least sparks didn't fly like the steel ones.

Update on reman, shot another 200. This time had 4 malfunctions.
2 failure to eject (empty casing in barrel), which caused a third malfunction: the next round jammed against the unejected casing and punched the bullet into the casing, much like those three short rounds in the OP. 4th malfunction was a jam, which occurred on my likes-to-jam Kimber solo, so it's not surprising.
Of these 4, two malfunctions on the Kimber solo that shot 45 rounds.
So far, really not that bad at all, much better than that terrible ammo I bought from the gunshow, which was more expensive too.
