Isn't that reloaded ammo?

I've used around 100 rounds of it for .454 casull, and it was good.

magtech is ok.

woefully underpowered in 45. I have actually had a few guns that would barely cycle with it. Accuracy is on par with other "CHEAP" plinking ammo. Not the greatest but i have not had any serious problems with it.

It's imported from Brazil and is actually military grade ammo.
Not reloaded or remanufactured ammo.
I've used the 9mm stuff for a while and have gone through 1000+ rounds with no problems
and shot maybe about 400 rds of the 45 stuff in range guns.
It's just fine for range use.IMHO

I've shot a couple hundred rounds through my Taurus.  Nothing fancy but it all worked fine.

Seemed totally fine, no indications that it wasn't commercial first production ammo.

Not at all sure of the ballistic qualities, and a little smoky if I remember correctly.

I used to use tons of it in .45.  


Never had any kind of problem with it.  Always went bang and never failed to cycle any of my guns.  

I've never chrono'd it.  

Seems accurate enough for handgun ammo.  

It's inexpensive.  

I continue to use the brass in my reloads.  The brass is good stuff.

You guys get the blue box in the US, right?
That's nice stuff (for range use at least)

I've used the gold box stuff in 9mm and 45ACP, and it was all good stuff.
Not a singel malfunction of any kind with it.

Too bad the prices have gone up...

I've shot a couple hundred rounds of the Blue Box .45, aroud $10 a box- it was ok- couple stovepipes, but I think it's my 1911, not the ammo.

I believe they also import a brand called Independence ammo, in a white box, from the same company (Magtech).  Have  a box, but haven't tried it yet.

I've had no problems function with it in my .45 Springfield.

No problem with accuracy, either.

I've used quite a bit in several different calibers, with no problems at all. Of course, for CCW, I try to stick with name brand stuff.
