    Saw this companies booth at the Chantilly show and wanted to get some but didn't. Prices were okay. Not great for an off brand. However, 77grain 5.56 SMK was just about $.64 per round with taxes on 1000 case.

    Their 9mm Ammo was way overpriced.

    Anyone use this brand of ammo and have good results?

    Are you talking the Underwood stuff with the fluted nose?

    It tumbles in gel blocks. That is how it appears to do more damage.

    No. Just 9mm FMJ practice rounds.

    Price was more than Speer or Federal on targetsportsusa.com. About $.19 per round for 124g. Put taxes on it and it wasn't worth the price. With an off brand being same or more I'm going with the known brand.

    They have had great reviews online though.

    Bought a bunch of their reman .45 and a couple boxes of their subsonic .308 from them at a Chantilly show last year., no issues with any of the rounds and all performed fine. Haven't bought any recently though, as like you mentioned they seem to be priced higher than other options out there now.

    Don't know anything about that brand, but unless I have a compelling reason to switch, this is what I typically buy for long range use out of my 3 gun AR:

    Love the magtech/CBC mk262 clone. Super accurate and relatively affordable.
