Your go to ammo?

[Rammer Jammer]

I reload so the only factory ammo I buy is 22lr or 9mm because it has come down in price so much it isn't worth my time to reload it. The cost savings just aren't there for 9mm.

I use steel cased ammo for 9mm whether it be Winchester Forged or Tula. Whichever is cheaper.

My revolvers only get fed with my reloads.

 

[dr. mordo]

I'll shoot anything that isn't steel cased. The last couple of years I've been buying from smaller online manufacturers - PrecisionOne and Freedom Munitions. I've shot thousands of the FM and only hundreds of the P-One, but I haven't had any problem with either.

For plinking/range time, in 9mm, mostly Winchester NATO, Blazer, and PPU NATO.
For .45, mostly Fiocchi and some Federal. Bulk deals usually.

I only shoot .22 and 9mm.
9mm I prefer S&B 124 gr NATO
.22 I like Federal Automatch and CCI Mini Mags

I buy in case lots from either sg ammo or target sports

 

[Doogie85]

For the range whatever is priced right, seems like I shoot a lot of Blazer Brass. I stick with Federal HST or Speer Gold Dot for defense.

 

[jbtrucker]

For plinking, whatever is available and cheap.

For defensive use, Speer Gold Dot and Federal HST.

Same for me

 

[andyinlz]

PPU for me, when available for my weapon of choice at the range.

 

[ArchAngelCD]

When I did buy ammo I bought what was on sale at the time for range use. Back then Remington UMC ammo was often on sale. I probably shot everything that is sold but liked American Eagle, Remington UMC, PPU and Winchester White Box most. Independence .357 Magnum ammo was good stuff too.

 

[Joe4d]

whatever is on sale, Usually buy Fiocchi , I dont buy much ammo. Pretty much just 22 and shotgun and now 300 AAC, as I am not set up to load, dotn have any small rifle primers and probably wont shoot it enough to justify cost. So just buying bulk Magtec for it.

 

[chief38]

Self defense: Buffalo Bore, Speer, & sometimes Federal depending on caliber

Target shooting, plinking, competition: Hand loads

.22 target shooting/competition: CCI standard velocity 40 grain

.22 Rifles: CCI Mini-mags 40 grain

Bird Hunting: 12 Ga. shot shells that are 40 - 60 years old and inherited from my Dad. Mostly Winchester & Remington with a little Peters and Federal thrown in. They all work just fine including he paper hulls - never had one fail! The Pheasants don't seem to care.

Informal Skeet, Trap and Sporting Clays: What ever is on sale. Usually Federal blue box, Remington Club Loads.

Competition Skeet & Trap: Winchester AA

 

[Boudiepitbull]

I seem to buy mostly Fiocchi ammo. Maybe I like the box. I usually order 5 or 10 at a time and then save the brass for reloading.

In .22 LR its 40 gr CCI Mini Mags and 40 gr Aguila High Velocity Copper Plated rounds.
The CCI feeds 2 target pistols and the cheaper Aguila feeds 2 long guns.

 

[CDR_Glock]

Plinking and competition 9 mm ammo, after doing a 2000 round stint: Speer 147 gr.

I'll settle for Remington 9 mm 115 gr, if I have to. I tried Defender Remanufactured Ammo 115 gr but it's pretty dirty to me.

Plinking and Range:

380 ACP:
I like Federal.

22 LR:
Eley Club, CCI, Eley Target, Eley Team

I agree with Mr. Lowry's #15.
Most of my .38 sp. and .357 loads are 158 gr. so I grabbed a bunch of MagTech of the same weight for practice. I've heard claims of the ammo being smoky and dirty but haven't noticed enough to be a concern.
I save the brass because someday I'll be reloading.

 

[Bozz10mm]

Federal and Fiocchi fmj for practice, whichever is cheaper. It's usually Fiocchi. Federal HST for SD ammo.

 

[notsofast]

New to the sport and I am learning a good bit about the guns but know less about ammo. Shooting Fiocchi looks like the best "store bought" ammo for me. No ftf yet and my sight and hand shake probably determine how close I can get to consistency.
Recently bought some Perfecta and also Precision One, so I'm trending towards cheaper rounds because for me to enjoy shooting it has to be reasonably priced.
