Best price around, but it seems like no one buys its. I am missing something about the quality?

| Wow, I would buy it if I had the money right now. Silly consumerist Christmas. I've actually shot this ammo before (not this particular package, but the same ammo) and I didn't notice anything negative about it. Is it hole touching stuff? No, but it's great for the price. |

I have some and it states " 3050 FPS " is that a little low? Here is a list of published data that I have on different factory loads. 3050 is slower than the 50ish grain ammo, but 62 grains at 3020 has plenty of energy and should still be lethal out to 230 yards. However, terminal ballistics of the ss109 is still up for debate. The SS109 bullet is longer with a better bullet coefficient, so you will have less drop and better wind resistance at distance vs lighter bullets. cartridge, bullet weight, bullet type, bullet coefficient, published muzzle velocity (fps), calculated muzzle energy (ft-lbs) XM193 55gr FMJ .250 3165 1223 AE223J 55gr FMJ .269 3240 1282 Horn Steel Match 55gr .254 BTHP 3240 1282 AE223GTV 50gr gray tipped .215 3350 1246 Rem 50gr JHP 3425 .192 1302 AE M855 62gr SS109 3020 .304 1255 Quoted:
$400 per K is still out of my price range. yeah, I agree. It is a better price than my local walmart. I am a buyer at $350 per 1000. |
