I only personally have experience with their 380 FMJ I have ran 300 plus rounds without a single issue. I shoot with alot of guys that use their 40 and 9mm with the same results.

I've used thousands of rounds of their reman 9mm without a single issue.   Also a bunch of 223 with no issues.  I buy ammo exclusively from them unless Wally World has a crazy sale.

I hear they MAY have a problem with the case they use for new 9mm, get the reman as they will be proven cases. Other than that, all the ammo from them I have used is GTG.

Same here.  A couple thousand 9mm rounds in various weights and configurations, a few hundred .380's, and a few hundred 44 Mags.  

All good stuff.  Freedom is good to go.

I,ve been buying Freedom Munitions for years.I,ve fired 5.56, 45acp and 9mm all remanfactured. Never had a problem with any of it. I'm waiting for 500m rds of 9mm 124gr I bought for $107.00 with free shipping. They have good prices and always ship quickly.

I've shot several thousand rounds of their 9mm and 40 S&W both reman and new.  The only problem I ever had was with the 9mm reman.  There were several bulged cases one of which resulted in a gun firing out of battery.  I shoot their new exclusively now.

I want to try them out as well. What's the difference between the 147g 9mm and the 147g hush? I imagine the hush is lower pressure for suppressor use but the normal 147g should be subsonic already too. Anybody know?

I was actually at the range lastnight and had a couple of jams with their ammo (.40 S&W).  The range master wasnt happy and mentioned that a couple of their ammo was out of spec.  Told me to stop using their ammo at their range as they have had issues in the past with them.  I might of had a bad box, as I did go through a few hundred rounds in the past with no issues.  But I will purchase a caliper just to make sure all my other rounds are in spec.

I sent them an email this morning, but havent heard form them yet.

I'm just starting my second batch of a thousand rounds. the 1st thousand ran like a champ in all of my pistols, that is everything from a Taurus PT111 , Sig 2022 and a M&P 40 and a Glock 23 both using conversion barrels. They run a little dirtier than some but shoot fine, and if you watch thier site closely you can get some extra nice savings, most recently 1K, shipped was $184.xx to my door.

I have shot probably a thousand rounds of various calibers without issue. Mostly 5.56, .223, .40 cal, 45 Acp.

We sell it in the store I work for, we are almost done with the second 100k lot of 9mm we are selling. I've shot the 9mm myself and it's good stuff. We only sell the new ammo, so I can't comment on the reloads.

I'm done with them.

I have had three orders from them, the first was GTG, but the subsequent orders were inconsistent and I had several rounds in every box that were loaded very light, and failed to cycle the slide, or just felt "wrong" and forced me to take the pistol down to check for a squib.  Fortunately all the rounds exited the barrel, but I no longer am purchasing their ammo.

It's a pity too, as that first order of 124 grain fmj reman was good stuff, but I suspect they are a victim of their own success and are simply pushing the stuff out the door too fast, just to keep up with orders.

I am new to this forum and have used about 2000 rnds of their reman ammo and it is great...HOWEVER, I received 250 rounds of new 9mm 124 GR with a Hornady XTP bullet...the brass was new IMT and this is what was left in my Sig P320 breech after the first round......This is just shy of 3/8" of the forward part of the case after the case ruptured.  I was told by Freedom that if the case is just a little bit short...it creates this weak spot.  I will continue to use their reman ammo but will have nothing to do with this IMT brass.


Sorry I cant get this to post correctly...click on it and you can see the picture.

I shoot their 9mm new and reman almost exclusively for my plinking and range ammo, never had an issue with either so far. I've also shot about 100 rounds of their reman .223 ammo without a problem.

I have shot 2000 new 9mm out of a glock, no malfunctions. 500 reloads out of same glock no malfunctions. There was a thread I saw on this previously were a couple guys got case separations when firing new out of a 9mm carbine.

5k so far in new and reman 9mm, all good. And I still use it.

300 black reman, not so much. Brass not cut down correctly, always 2 or more per 50.
Sticking with new and going somewhere else.
