    I have seen the olympic brand 9mm selling for just under $100 bucks + shipping. I ordered some a while back and have still been waiting for my order to arrive. It's still back ordered. Don't know how it will shoot but it's supossed to be NATO spec.

    For what its worth, I bought 150 rounds of Wolf 9mm ($4.95/50) and ran it through my Beretta 92 last weekend without any problems.

    Go ahead and reload. You'll save a boatload of money and it is enjoyable. I can reload 9mm for as little as $3.50 per box. As for the warranties, just be careful and cautious whil reloading and you'll never have a problem.

    For what my say is worth. I shoot ALOT of 9mm and here is what i came up with in ammo. Wolf fires good in my taurus and ruger at about 5 or 6 bucks a box it is ok. The sellior and belliot or however you spell it is ok, but the hollow points that i shot jammed some and shot real dirty. As for the walmart 100 box, i have bought a few of those and have had no problem.

    Hate to just add more words without new info, but I have thrown thousands of rounds of the Winchester WalMart ammo down range at $10.97 per hundred. The spread is a little larger than the more expensive stuff, but it is well within my standards for inexpensive range practice and even home defense (if I happen to shoot up all my hollow points). Also, it never jams for me.

    Awhile back, Sports South had Remington UMC for $5.29/box. If your order exceeds $199, they pay the shipping and you only pay the COD fee. Above $299, they pay it all. I am waiting for a repeat of the sale. I used to sell a lot of brass at gun shows; but 9mm will not bring one cent each anymore.

    I just would like to take this opportunity to warn others like myself who may not know
    please beware of cheap EGYPTIAN 9mm ammo
    I bought a case of it a few years back and after about the third round
    noticed 'something' just did not feel right
    immedialty I ceased firing (fortunatly)----and dropped the mag on my tec9
    low and behold
    the bullet was jammed inside the barrel
    i'd hate to think what 'could' have happened had i not sensed something wrong and ceased fire
    the bullet was jammed in there tight
    when i got home from the range----I dislodged the bullet and miked it out
    WOW---was that bullet waaaaaaaaay oversized
    much larger than the barrel i.d.---so I started checking some of the other rounds and found that there were MANY that were considerably oversized
    i dug a hole in my back yard and buried them so no-one could possibly get these by mistake
    it was sometime later i learned these were actually designed for machine-gun use and the bores of these weapons are considerablly larger i.d.

    For the money I think BLAZER is the best pratice ammo. at about $7.00 a box or les sometimes when you catch it on sale.
