I'd be happy myself, but then again I've never shot the A stuff.

I don't understand what you are stating by refrencing this link. Q3131 is seconds? If that is the case so are Federal xm193 !!! |

Ammunitionstore has two different prices - Q3131A (which is totally drying up) for $240/K. Q3131 is $210/K.
Both should be the same spec.... but after going through so many cases of the "A" without a single hiccup.... I would always prefer it. Wont be long and we wont see it ever again.... potentially, unless Winchester/Olin and IMI re-establish their contract. |

That means nothing. Velocity is what matters... difference in the burn rate of the lot of powder they used for that ammo, could EASILY make that lower charged Q3131A much hotter ammo. Measuring the weight of the powder charge is interesting, but doesnt mean much in terms of examining which will perform better in the AR15 weapon system. |

Just enjoy the ammo and rest easy at night knowing that... BOTH SHOULD BE BANNED FROM CIVILIAN USE! |
