    I've shot a lot of the magtech 147gr 7.62x51 ball back when Rampart was selling it. No complaints. It's reliable and runs cleaner than a lot of the other target ammo. The brass is pretty good quality for what it is, decently priced range ammo. I wouldn't hesitate to use the 150gr 308 for general range duty. It's not match ammo, but it has proven more accurate in my 308s than a lot of lower-tier hunting ammo and even Barnes Vor-TX. YMMV.

    This ammo is just junk.... tried a box of 357Mag in several firearms and there were , basically, 20% misfires...
    With multiple trigger pulls you could reduce that number to about 10%.... but still....

    Anyone tried the 44 mag yet?

    The published velocity is relatively high for a 240gr.

    Would love you guys to get the steel cased stuff. It runs great and at least south of the border it is really well priced.
