I had some other nines at the time, and some of them wouldn't fire the stuff. It was Boxer primed, though, and the cases held up pretty good. I'd use them when I was shooting in high grass or the woods, so I didn't lose "the good stuff" in the brush.

Danged hard primers, so the SMGs wouldn't have fits with it.


i remember that stuff when it first came into the country, priced at about 70bucks per thousand. Hate to quote what the wholesale price was. kind of fun in a way, pull the trigger and wait four or five seconds to see if it would go off.
