Anyone tried any? Just got a dealers flyer with no prices,thought I'd give them a call. Apparently they just landed a huge contract from Uncle Sugar.

I have some limited experience with their pistol ammo and it leaves a LOT to be desired.

I have to assume the rifle ammo they produce is on the same level.

Shot some of their 9mm that a buddy bought at a gun show.  It seemed to be really hot compared to everything else we were shooting.

Hoppy

We sold it for a short time but found that people got really mad when chunks of brass came off the bullet in the chamber causing a barrel obstrution.

Too many other complaints to list.  

I hope they didn't get a govt. contract the ammo is junk.

Maybe it is to leave laying around so the bad guys all have weapon failures while trying to use captured ammo.

IU don;t know about all of that.  I fired about 1000 rds of the .40 S&W ammo and it fired fine, for really cheap ammo that is.  I would buy more for plinking.

Didn't the British do that that in Africa so the natives would give up their guns after the first few explosions?

I have never heard of that, but it would not be far fetched.  It has been a common tactic throughout history.

In WWII the Germans would leave behing handgrenades with 1/4 second fuses for the Russians to keep them from being eager to use captured German equipment.

Wouldn't surprise me if they did.
