My sample sizes are always relatively small, but no issues with this steel case load. no internal step for bullet depth. Velocity was a little slower than a control lot of 115gr FMJ Magtech brass case on the same day.
Dayco Ammo was nice enough to send this over: https://www.daycoammo.com/products/magtech-ammunition-6775-db0a900e-5fd7-4d14-8673-124862365e98 True Shot also has it: True Shot 9mm Magtech  9x19mm, 115gr FMJ, Magtech Steel Case (9AS)  9x19mm, 115gr FMJ, Magtech Steel Case (9AS) by Buffman RANGE, on Flickr |

I've seen this and have been tempted. Price wise, it sits where Blazer Aluminum used to sit for me.

I watched the video and the cartridge info said this steel cased Magtech used boxer primers. Most foreign steel cased ammo I’ve seen used Berdan primers.
A friend had a few hundred of the steel cased 45 ACP Evansville Chrysler cases from WW II with boxer primers. We loaded those steel cases along with our brass 45 ACP case and they ran fine. Buffman just curious if this steel cased ammo is in fact loaded with boxer primers. |

I shoot it in my home brew 9mm AR carbines and PSA dagger pistols. The only problem I ever had was a few FTF in a very dirty Sig P320. It feeds easier than other steel case due to the Zinc(?) coated nickel plating-like coating on the cases. It’s fed fine in the daggers, as well as a Beretta 92FS. |
