I have used some and not had any problems with it. You could also try Mcnett's loads. I have heard nothing but good things about them.
A buddy and I have shot literally 10s of thousands of rounds from Georgia Arms without one single problem. IMHO it is the absolute best factory reloaded ammo out there! Even though I do reload there are some loadings I just buy from them because of convenience.

I have been shooting their ammo for years as well with no problems. My last purchas was 1000 rounds of the .357sig for $160 + tax. I also carry their speer gold dots in .357sig and 9mm +p
Not only is their ammo top quality but they are also 2 miles from my house :)
I have used their ammo with no problems. They are a good value. For protection I carry Double Tap in 125 gr.

I'm on my second "can", and haven't had any problems with it. I've shot some of their Gold Dots too - no prob there. I recommend their ammo.
BTW, for defense loads I use Winchester Ranger.

I bought a 500 rnd can of their stuff at a local gun show. Comes in a nice GI can to keep air out, and never had a problem. I've shot about 200 of the 500 rounds so far. I also bought a 50pack of their New(not reloaded) Gold dot rounds for like 17 bucks which is what you pay for 20 rounds of speer gold dot. Nice deal. Since walmart was a sell out I'd probably go back with them whenever I need more.
I use to buy 10mm ammo from them when I had my 1006. I was quickly corrected by person on this site as well as Mike from DT about pressures surrounding the 40S&W which is what the department I was with at the time was issuing. The GA stuff is at a higher pressure for the added speed and power and some of there rounds are not recommend for Glocks.
All of DTs stuff is fine to shoot from any Glock and matches the speed and accuracy so why not. I know the plinking ammo from GA is cheaper. Never had one FTF or FTE with any of their stuff though. Top quality and service.

I've gone through around 500 of my 3k and no problems. It's the reason I decided to pick up a few 357SIG 226s and a 229 - too expensive otherwise and I'd have been happy sticking with 9mm and .45.

I am now on my third can of GA's "canned heat" in .357Sig FMJ.
Great stuff...no problems.
I say BUY ^c but don't buy too much ;)
