Projectiles. They might put the same bullets in the ammo.

I have tried the Armscor .22 High Velocity ammo and I was not impressed. It caused some issues in my friend's gun. Actually, it just made a bad situation worse. They were not terribly accurate in any of my guns.

Also, I have tried the Armscor ~62gr .224 heads that WGS sells. They were awful. They made 4"-5" groups at 100 yards. And the cannelures were not in consistent places between bullets. So one round the cannelure might be in the right place and the next it would be a tenth or more in either direction.

I got some jams with ARMSCOR 223 55gr FMJ ammo when I was at SIG.  On chambering a round, the case shoulder would get dented and result in out of battery and difficulty in extracting.  Happened a few times in my MCX rifle and other student's rifles and could have been a faulty lot of ammo.  Wondering if anyone else had experiences with it.  I shot ARMSCOR pistol rounds before and it was fine.

I also bought 223 FMJ bullets and found the cannelures and lengths were different on each one, but they shot fine.  Winchester bullets were similar too.  Hornady's seemed a lot more consistant.

was thinking more in the lines of getting a pallet of 9mm, so that's the round I should have mentioned. :oops:

What's the price point per case?

I shot the 9mm and had no issues.  HFR uses that, blazer, and federal range for their range ammo that you must buy.
