Good ammo in my opinion. I've shot 5 boxes with no issues. Very clean looking and seems to shoot consistently. It seems to be one of the "zippier" brands for range ammo. The spent cases really fly out of my semis. I was at Cabela's a few months ago and they had 12 boxes at $11.99. The boxes looked kind of scuffed up, so I suppose it was some that had been moved around in a warehouse for a while. I bought only 6 boxes, since I had never tried it. Of course now I wish I'd bought all 12.

Oops, I missed the "JHP" in the original post. Well anyway, the FMJ's I've shot have been good.

Pmc has worked well for me so far although I haven't used that yet.I've had no malfunctions in my 45's using the 230 gr.FMJ or the .223/5.56 55 gr. in my AR.The brand always seems to carry high reviews.

PMC's one of my preferred brands. I've shot the FMJ in 9mm, .38, .45 and .223, and it's clean, consistent, and, like shakyshoot said, fairly hot. I've shot the JHP only in .45, but it feeds reliably in my SW1911 E-Series, and that's my bedstand gun.

I went back this AM and also found some Remington HTP right inside the front door. Probably walked past it yesterday.
