Believe if you check out the Ammo Fac at the top of the Ammunition forum under AR15.com above and then peruse the Ammunition forum you find alot of the folks here like that ammo.

You'll probably run across the the best place to buy it, as in here: [url]www.ammoman.com[/url]

I use it a lot and have no problems with it, I do notice an ammonia smell when using it ,fast, and alot but it says it is non-corrosive and has been fine , have used about 2 thousand  rounds of it, and like it.

South African rocks,  I have about 3500 rounds downrange. It loads, fires and ejects without problem.  Per the T&B Ammo FAQ pictures, this stuff goes "poof" when hitting dense matter at  2800fps and over.

No problems with SA at all.

It's all I shoot. I wish that SA battlepacks grew on trees.

If they banned SA battlepacks, we'd all be screwed.

Don't tell the MMM.

I've had some extraction problems with PMP ammo only.  I've discussed this on the board with others and some have agreed.

Great stuff! I've shot somewhere between two and three thousand rounds of it, without it giving me any problems. And is fairly accurate.

I've been stocking up on it, as it's been the best mil-suplus that I've tried. Especially for the money.
