    Bought 2 boxes (100) of their 9mm to try, stuff stinks. 3 rounds just went poof in my H&K USP, and had to check barrel to make sure the rounds cleared, lots of blow back on the cases which failed to eject. Rounds also seemed to be a little under powered when compared to other rounds that I was testing out. Problems were definitely with the ammo, since we tried out 3 other brands and fired about 400 rounds that day.

    the cheapest 9mm i've found anywhere is at wal-mart. I've been trying to find someone to beat their price and still can't. I bought 1000 rounds of 9mm 115 gr. FMJ for $117.00.they sell it in boxes of 100 rounds for just under $11 a box. once you add the cost of shipping, this is by far a better deal. It's a little dirty, but it shoots well, and have yet to have a single misfire, and I've shot about 2000 rounds of the stuff in the past two months.

    I just shot a few boxes of the 9mm the other day and was satified with the results. As far as buying from Wal-Mart, I used to buy my handgun ammo there but they always seemed to be sold out or had 100 to 150 rounds. I believe that I paid about 95.00 bucks for the 1000 rds of olympic from sportsmans guide. Shipping was about 20 dollars, I think. Comparable to the wal-mart price. Go with what ever works best for you.
