Champion shooters sent an email yesterday that this was good ammo, they shot 400-37x at 50 yards (whatever that means). They are $58. A brick though.

The price some people are paying for bulk this sounds good. I probally should buy some to try it, but I just don't need it. Got to be careful someone might accuse me of hoarding. Hasbeen

Local gun store got a bunch in a while back. At first they only sold to people who were using their range. Now they're selling to the public. While at the range a while back a guy was shooting it via a CZ 455 varmint with pretty good results. He did mention that it was pretty dirty stuff.

Just tried to order a few bricks and was informed bullets.com does not ship ammo to California at all. A decision made by the company owner who I was Informed is also the president of national long range shooting association something or other...

Never will understand advocates of the shooting sports making decisions like this.
United we stand, divided we fall type of deal to me...

I shot 100+ thru my S&W 1522 last week end. I wouldn't call it dirty,but it is oily to the point that you need to wipe your fingers off after loading the magazines. My 1522 was cleaner than after shooting any cheap Federal stuff, for sure.

Sounds like TAC = pre-lubed.

Some people lightly oil their finger tips and roll the brass between their fingers prior to loading a mag.
