You resented buying it. 9mm blasting bullets run less than $300 per kiloround. In this case, you read a few online reviews and then forked over nearly 40 bucks for a box of 50. This was the good stuff. At least you would never have to shoot it.
The bullet weighs 124 grains. That’s about 8 grams. It was born in the SIG SAUER ammo plant outside Little Rock, Arkansas. The cases are nickel-plated for long life, and the bullets incorporate more raw technology than the moon landings.
Once you get home, you load your carry magazine to capacity with the shiny silver cartridges. You then lock the magazine in the butt of your pistol and slide it into the gun safe. You don’t plan to think of them ever again.

Alternate story: all that cycling degraded the primer and you don't get a bang. Hopefully you have time and remember your failure drill.
ReplyDeleteThat is an interesting article be better if you cycled through the ammo though....

...unknown to you, the quality control department failed to ensure that all the brass cases used for the ammunition had sufficient INSIDE diameter to allow seating the 147 grain hollow point projectile without expanding the case of near its base to a diameter which exceeds chamber dimensions, turning your wonder gun and wonder ammunition into a one-shot wonder.
ReplyDeleteLater, when you contact the manufacturer to describe the problem, and you offer to send in the approx 1/3 of the rounds you purchased with this condition, the rep offers you 10% off on your next box.
And this is why I dont used Sig ammo. Ever. For anything.
Kiloround? Don't let that bullshit escape into the wild.
ReplyDeleteHST's are a better choice. I also shoot the magazine of JHP's every 6 to 9 months to make sure my target ammo produces the same recoil.
