Can you get a picture of it uploaded? FMJ, JHP, brass or nickel cased?

Wow! that's weird, when I started my reply, no picture. By the time I posted it, there was a picture.

Sure sounds like a good price. If you like the way it shoots, go on with it. I'd definately buy it up at that price. Do what I do, buy a whole ham, string it up from a tree and shoot it. That's what sold me on the winchester PDX1 bonded 180 gr ammo I carry.

Is there a number on the box? I have some 135gr that look just like it and is marked XM40HA. The XM40HB is 155 gr and called HST LE ammo.
Either way, if you have a number, Google it and see what comes up.

sorry but no box,it was in loose baggies.i have never been able to find out anything about this on the net.it shoots very good and seems to be pretty hot,however i don't think i would trust my or my families life with it until i know exactly what it is.anyway,for the price i paid,it makes really good water jug bustin' fodder!!!!
