I have a few boxes of it, too. Can't remember where I got it, but it's made in China. Any help on this would be appreciated.

We tested some several years ago, I suspect that it is not currently being imported. Results:

+P from G19
Seemed reliable
Accuracy only tested out to 15 yds combat type shooting- OK for that
Brass is very poor quality for reloading

Three bucks for 50 is a very good price for blasting ammo, but i wouldn't pay much more than that when you can get WWB at Walmart for about 5.50 per 50 (well, actually 11.00 for 100)

Enjoy!

Much obliged, Jim.
