Limited Ammo Selection / Q?

vermonter · Post by **vermonter** » September 24th, 2006, 2:53 pm

Presently I have only 2 choices on my dealers shelf. Norinco 9x18 (China) hardball, or American Eagle (Federal) hardball. I read a thread where American Egale had feed problems. Given these two choices what cartridge would you reccomend and why? I am trying to get him to order some S&B.

Can't answer your specific question, but I know that Winchester 9mm Mak ammo is made in the Czech Republic by Sellior and Belliot.

Here's some good stuff at a great price with very reasonable shipping:

I think I remember the thread where someone said they had feed problems with Federal American Eagle. I found that pretty incredible, as that ammo is within normal Overall Length specs for 9x18 and is consistently made. I think that person hadn't broke in his feed ramp yet and would have had problems with a variety of ammo. But I wouldn't buy the Federal American Eagle because of the price. Nobody should ever pay $18 - $20 for a box of 9x18. I don't know how Federal gets away with it.

Norinco is good ammo and you should get it for $8 or less. Another site to look at is:

Has there any feed problems with the brown bear fmj in either the p-64 or the bulgie maks?
