Oddball 9mm Ammo
At some time in the past (probably at a gun show??) I picked up a couple of hundred rounds of FMJ brass case ammo. I don’t know what I paid for it, but I’m sure it wasn’t much. Anyway, when I got home I threw it onto the ammo shelf and pretty much forgot about it until today when I decided to take the 39-2 and 639 out to play.
I grabbed one of the RED, 50 round boxes and turned it over and saw “Made in China”. The only specs given were that it was 9X19 and 124 gr ball. The headstamp is shown in the attachment, but if it comes through fuzzy it has 9X19 at 12 o’clock, L @ 9 o’clock, Y at 3 o’clock, and what appears to be 73 at 6 o’clock.
I mixed and matched them with some Federal American ammo I had open already, and the commie stuff felt just a bit more brisk than the Feds, but barely noticeably. Anyway, I’m curious about anybody else who has used this stuff and what your experiences were if you did?
