1911 and Ammo

Hey guys, long time no see.

I recently bought a new toy and am having the same issues as I've had with my Kimbers, Colts, and Thompson 1911s.

After about 200 rds or so, the weapon starts gumming up and jamming. I've been shooting the Winchester battle packs. I might bump up to to a 240 grain round, I think Winchester's best in the the battle packs are 230.

What do you guys shoot for target/what do you do to the weapon to keep it from gumming badly?

BTW, here's my new toy. Custom built Strayer-Voigt frame, Caspian slide. Completely built from the ground up by master gunsmith Tommy Abernathy.
