....UPDATE....
OK ........... The Good
took a couple bandos out and shot it today. No FTF, FTE, FTC. No case deformations, no swelling, splitting, no blown primers. Close range up to 50 yds same accuracy as the SA and Port. Same poi.
shooting side by side with SA cant tell any difference in muzzle report or blast. a few rounds were a touch hotter on recoil but you had to be paying VERY close attention to notice it
now .... The bad ....
one can is nasty. Looks like it may have gotten a bit hot (burn mark on paper label inside of can. Stripper clips are corroded abit leading to some case corrosion, not much but a little. Probably wont shoot this stuff and just demill it for reloading, Dont know
accuracy at 100 yds isnt great, probably about 6" and low compared to the SA. Part of this may be due to me paying more attention to the rounds and watching for any squibs, ftf, fte etc than just concentrating on accuracy. That and a 20 mph diagonal wind didnt help any
and like everyone knows this stuff is dirty, didnt show much difference in the bore but the chamber definitly is dirtier, so IM sure it is dirtier through the bore also
Would I buy more ????????????????
Maybe, Ill have to see how tired I get of the extra cleaning needed after a range session. Probably not though
Will I shoot it ????????????? Yes. Its decent range/plinking ammo and actually it shot better open sight than it did with the scope. So for just going out and getting some trigger time to relieve tension ..... sure why not
For puncing holes in targets for accuracy or dropping a coyote or hog or attacking zombies Ill use the SA and Port
I was needng more ammo cans anyway and Ive got bandos and stripper clips out the wazoo just nee a spoon or two and Im good to go
