I just go to Freedom Munitions where 9mm is that price (or a little less)
all of the time

LOL I did notice that they raised the regular price of it. It use to have $219 crossed out and $199 as the sale price/ Now it has $266 crossed out. I'm going to order some.

How does their stuff compare to Winchester and Remington bulk?

UMC is Remington's "bulk". Anything else in green and yellow Remington boxes is a bulk of Remington.

Ah you are correct sir Thanks for setting me straight. I'm about to order some UMC, but I read some rave reviews of Freedom munition.

And, in truth, Blaster's thinking of ordering some Freedom Munitions ... which reminds me that I owe him a link.

I ended up ordering 500 rounds(9mm) of Fiocchi from Lax ammo...I'll see how good it is.
What is everyone's opinion of steel cased ammo for practice. I've always avoided it anything but my SKS(SOLD). I have the (misconception?) that steel cased ammo would wear on guns more than brass or aluminum cased ammo, so I've avoided it. Am I being too cautious?

I've never had one single problem/malfunction/misfire with any of their ammo and I've shot thousands of rounds of it.
Their .223 ammo is also very good (at least in my experience.)
Other than .22 LR, I buy just about all of my ammo from them.
New customers get free shipping with your first order. I usually wait until they run a free shipping promotion before I order more.

Freedom is good stuff. All the ammunition I gave out at our first shooting event was from freedom.

I am no expert nor am I a gunsmith but I feel the same way and avoid steel case for the reason you cited.

This is a long article, but it is VERY well done, and is worth reading on the whole "brass vs steel" debate:

http://www.luckygunner.com/labs/brass-vs-steel-cased-ammo/

This was done in ARs, so it's a little different, but their end conclusion is basically that it's not the brass vs steel case you need to worry about, but the projectiles. The bimetal projectiles in the cheap steel ammo shot out the barrels of their test guns while the copper jacketed projectiles from the Federal brass cased ammo didn't. They did see some increased extractor wear with the steel cases, though.

That said, I also shoot brass cased, copper jacketed projectiles these days.

Thanks for info/link. So I guess I was on the right track then. I never thought about the bimetal projectiles...
