I picked up 4000 rounds of HSM 55 grain FMJ reloads at a gun show for $165/1000. So far I have shot about 500 rounds and have had no problems. The brass looks good (not perfet, but at $.17 a round...), and once I polished the spent casings up they looked great! I was wondering if anyone else has had any good/bad experiances with this stuff. Heck, it's almost as cheap as wolf! So far so good, next time they are in town , I will be getting some more!!! BTW-this is the company that provides Cabelas with all of their bulk and remanufactured ammo, and this stuff is suppposed to be the same quality. CB |

I have shot it for a few years. I give it 2 thumbs up for price and reliability. We have an ammo dealer here in western WA that sells it at all of our local WAC gunshows. Same price $165 per 1K right now ( 1 year ago it was around $125 ) I have NEVER had a bad round out of maybe 8K rounds of this stuff. It's the best priced plinking ammo out there I think. |
I was worried about that as well, but they have been in business for 25+ years, and if their quality control is sufficient enough that Cabela's would assume the liablity to sell their ammo, that's good enough for me. Same goes for BHBB reloads. Now if it were joe schmoe off the street selling his own home brewed special load, that would be a whole 'nother story! |
| I purchased a few k from them at a gun show. When I questioned the guy about the quality, he said plain and simply"if you shoot it and you dont like it, I will take it all back." And I believed him. It was new stuff, or was suppose to be new, but it looks great. I have not shot any yet though. |
I just recently purchased a box of their 55 and 64 Gr Soft Points. I will let you know how it shoots in a week or so. Most of their ammo is geared for Hunting and Match and it is very accurate. However, most of their ammo is not cannelured, but they do put a nice crimp on their bullets. I never had any problems with any of their ammo. |
I paid $15.35 for 50. Here is the HSM Price List. |

Ive shot 2k of their 9mm reloads with no problems. The cases were a bit corroded. Id buy again. I buy direct from factory. the people there are very nice and professional. hope I will still be able to find ammo there after you ammo stashers destroy their inventory.
