Change my mind
I change my mind, from my previous review. I changed firearms, to a sig sauer, and the remaining ammo left, of over 500 rounds, performed well enough. No FTFs, did have 1 or 2 FTEs. Like I said, no dirtier than other cheap brass ammo. I actually grew to like shooting steel, in places where its not convenient to collect brass. And if you never have some sort of interruption on your firearm working flawlessly, how will you react, when it happens, when it matters? To me, its good training, to have ammo that wont work 100% of the time. I ordered another 1000 rounds. Have shot a couple hundred, and only had. Couple FTEs. Same in a S&W M&P Shield.
WINCHESTER HAS A WINNER
A friend gave me a box , Boy was I surprised. My S&W Core would put them in the same hole, if I could hold steady.Also did very well in Kahr pm9. Range shooting was shot at 7&15 yards. I have since found them in 500rd. case. I don`t know about the other bad reviews but that was not my exsperience.
Excellent Ammunition!
This ammunition is within a couple of pennies as inexpensive as the cheapest Russian ammo such as Wolf, Brown Bear etc. The Winchester USA Forged, however, is vastly superior. I have gone through 450 rounds without a single malfunction (gun used is a Ruger 9E) of any kind. The rounds burn clean and have pie plate accuracy @25 yards. The only reason for not buying these is because they are not reloadable. Other than that start stocking up before the panic really hits in November.
Great Range Ammo
Have fired over 2000 rounds thru M&P Core, Sig 320, 226, Walther PPQ, CCP without problems. I clean after each session and even though it may be a some dirty, the cost makes a little extra cleaning worth the money.
Finally an inexpensive ammo!
The trouble with being a gun enthusiast is how expensive it can be. But with this finally there is a relatively inexpensive American made ammunition that performs well. I've gone through several boxes and never had a single misfire or stoppage. Even my guns weren't as dirty as I would have expected having gone through several hundred rounds in a short time. I will be buying this ammo in bulk for my range time.
