Default Anyone familiar with BPS or Mag-tech 9mm?

I was pricing some 9mm ammo on line and came across the BPS brand. Info says made in Turkey. Prices are pretty good in Bulk. Has anybody used this? Good or Bad?

Also seeking info on mag-Tech 9mm. I've used some of their .32 Long before and its excellent stuff. Never tried the 9mm. Tell me about it.

I’ve never shot BPS ammo, but have shot a lot of Mag Tech 9mm and it’s good stuff for range ammo. Decent accuracy and not too dirty. I look at it as usually a good value in 9mm ammo.

I've never had a problem with MagTech ammo but I haven't shot factory 9mm ammo in a long while. When I did shoot it, it was fine.

MagTech is just fine. It's one of the most prevalent FMJ loads in .38 I can find in my area. Used plenty of it in 9mm, also.

I have used some MagTech 115 gr FMJ 9mm. My experience with shooting and chronographing it is that it is under loaded and will not cycle the action of some of my guns. I will never buy any more.
