Good and expensive.
Well, for me anyway.
I haven't bought factory ammo since it was $150 or so for 500 rounds.
I reload everything I shoot and save all factory.

I was able to get some. Got 200 rd. Just curious to how good it is.

You are dealing with a huge unknown here.
Unknown manufacturer = unknown quality

From the info I read on the website,
it could have been loaded by someone in their basement.

Noticed the Foot Pounds calculation is wrong ... it shows the correct amount for a 55gr .. not a 62gr.

I think that is because they simply copied something off the web.

OP:
Check it with a magnet when you get it.
I would also be curious if it has sealant and if the primers are crimped.
