I cannot believe searching for "Perfecta" showed nothing......
Anyway, I was at Walmart last night and saw Perfecta 223 Rem ammo in a 50 round box for $19. It looked good: brass case, 55 FMJ bullet, non-corrosive. Appears to be Italian made. I picked up 50 rounds on a whim to try. I have around 1.5k rounds of mainly Fed AE and PMC at home (I'm on an extended vacation right now). At $19 for 50 rounds the price isn't that good, but I figured if it shot okay I could probably find it in bulk somewhere and get the price closer to $300/10000 rounds where the Fed and PMC are maybe $50 higher per 1000. Anyone shot this stuff? I'm not expected 1 moa, but then I do not require that from the ammo used in my rifles for which it's intended. I only hope it's okay from a safety and reliability standpoint and prints 3 moa or so........... Thanks for your replies. |

Used to be called TulAmmo BrassMaxx. Dist by Tula, made by Fiocchi. Decent stuff, but the ZQi 30 round boxes of 5.56 62gn steel core are cheaper at $10/box. I switched to buying those when I'm at the store. Tho I have really slowed down my ammo buying over the last few months. |

It's cheap for brass and seems to be pretty decent stuff. IIRC it's basically xm855 made by MKE. |

Local Walmarts still have Tula from time to time. Got some yesterday.
.223, 9mm and .45acp I buy some whenever I see it to use for winter shooting when snow is on the ground and looking for brass is impossible. I wonder just how much Russian ammo is still in the pipeline. |
