This box sucked, you could hear the different loading of the rounds when they went off. Also the accuracy was all over the place with some of them. I had fliers like you wouldn't beleive.
Its not the pistol, with some Hornady critical defense rounds it was like a laser gun, but those are $1 each...   |
Strange. With shotgun ammo, it's a whole different story.
Couple years ago when I was living and working in San Antonio, I picked up a Stoeger 20 gauge SXS as a knockabout gun to do some dovehunting with. With cheap Remington Game Loads, I'd get close to a dozen misfires out of a box - on the shotgun forums, people with other makes of guns had the same complaint, word was that Remington was using cheap hard primers in their lower end shells.
But with Winchester shells, even the bargain basement ones, nary a problem. Same with the higher end ($15/box) Remington Express shells.
As good as their shotgun ammo is, kinda surprising that thier pistol ammo sucks.
