The Sportsman's Guide has 400 round battlepacks for $64.95. It is chronoed @ 3020 fps. Manufactured in the 1990's. Should I buy?

I've also purchased some from SG and it is sweet shooting stuff.  My RA M-96 will consistently put five rounds in a 1 inch group at 100 yds (If I do my part, and there's not much wind blowing).  Some claim that it isn't loaded as hot as other brands of SS109s.  I've never chronographed any of it so I'm not sure.  I do know it is extremely accurate in both my AR-15 And M-96. I'll trade slightly less volocity for more accuracy. It's good stuff give it a try I think you'll like it.

I bought 60rnds yesterday and got to try it out today. 93 was stamped on the case head,didnt have my chrono with me but I would have  to say the stuff I got is way hot or soft brass. YMMV though,I would at least check over some fired cases before I stocked up on a lot of it.HTH
