Its all bad send it to me for disposal
 Never heard that on here before.
I picked up 1000 rd right at the tail end of cheap ammo a few years ago. I've only used it during an Appleseed Shoot but it went bang every time and seemed to fly straight enough. Shot it out of my DSA Stg 58 (Fal) |

Excellent... didn't get a screaming deal but I think I did alright: $80 for 200 rounds including two Frankford Arsenal 100 round plastic boxes.

Save the brass, there are many reports of it being reloadable several times.

Shot 60 rounds of it through my LR-308C, no ammo related issues. One of the mags that came with the gun had screwed up feed lips... halfway through the mag it stopped feeding and the bolt would drag over the round. Reminds me of shitty old black USGI followers. I used needle nose pliers on the feed lips and got them straightened out. I don't reload at all (don't get out to shoot enough to justify the cost
 ) but I'm saving the brass for a coworker who does.

Destroyed an M1a barrel after shooting 100 rounds and putting it away without a proper cleaning (for corrosive ammo). I am not new to corrosive ammo and cleaning, I have 128 Mausers and Mosins which only shoot corrosive ammo and have yet to have a problem with any of them. |

hmm... hopefully this stuff isn't
Other than cleaning the gas tube I thoroughly cleaned it just in case. |
