9mm - 124 Grain FMJ - Armscor - 100 Rounds

“Oh darn, I have 100 rounds of 9mm ammunition!” No one in the history of the firearm-owning world has ever uttered these words. If you own a 9mm pistol and ever intend on practicing with it – which is exactly what anyone with a 9mm pistol ought to be doing on a regular basis – then Armscor will scratch that itch! This round’s performance is standard, which is not to suggest it is subpar. It features the 9mm’s middleweight 124 grain bullet, which offers a good balance in terms of recoil energy, muzzle velocity and trajectory. The FMJ is the most popular type of 9mm bullet because it feeds efficiently, mitigates barrel fouling and most importantly costs less to manufacture than the JHP. It won’t expand during penetration like a JHP would have, so you could do a lot better if you are shopping for self-defense ammo, although Armscor’s nonmagnetic bullet makes this ammo a great pick for training at any commercial gun range. Armscor makes this ammo in the Philippines with new brass cases. They actually sell a lot of their 9mm cases on their own to handloaders, but they’re just a useful after they’ve already been fired. The ISO certified manufacturer only loads their nonmagnetic ammo with non-corrosive primers.

45 ACP - 155 Grain RHT Frangible - Speer Lawman - 50 Rounds

Even the most cautious shooter is subject to certain dangers when they train. Shooting at steel targets and against hard backdrops presents a real risk of splash-back, where copper and lead fragments ricochet back to do serious damage. Splash-back is also a common problem at indoor ranges, where poor ventilation may also cause toxic lead to linger in a carcinogenic haze! But Speer’s Lawman line of ammunition works to make all those risks moot. This 45 ACP cartridge features Speer’s 155 grain Reduced Hazard Training projectile. The frangible bullet is comprised of 100 percent compressed copper particles, which are hardened but not fused together in a process called sintering. The RHT accordingly stays intact as it feeds and fires, but crushes itself into powder when it slaps a steel target or other hard surface. And in conjunction with this round’s heavy metal free Clean-Fire primer, the RHT poses no threat of producing airborne lead that could have accumulated indoors. This round’s lightweight bullet grants it a fast muzzle velocity, although you will find Speer’s training ammo reliably mimics many other conventional self-defense loads. Speer gives their RHT a distinctive pattern on its tip for easy identification, and complements it with a new brass case and clean burning propellant for superior functionality in a semi-auto.
