    I have heard of it. I have been using it for range ammo for several years and have shot thousands of rounds of the 9MM. I recently had one dud round, I don't recall the last time that happened.

    I could not tell you about the .223 ammo. YMMV.

    Si, factory "re-manufactured" ammo. Seems to be a good value for me and I have shot a boatload of it. You can buy it from Cabela's with a coupon they often send out in the mail and they come with free ammo boxes.

    The .223 ammo may the same, or worse....

    I'd never use it in my guns. Have seen far too many problems, including squibs. Their QC just isn't up to snuff.

    I have shot about 1000 rounds through a Mini-14...never through an AR. That was back when I could buy a 50 box for $10. I can say one good thing about this ammo. It smells better than Wolf!

    Does anyone know if all their ammo is made in one plant?

    Again, speaking only about the 9MM, it has been no more, or no less reliable for me than the other ammo I use, Winchester White box. 8 or 10K rounds is a prety decent size statistical sample to base my opinion on. I have never experienced a squib either. YMMV.

    The .223 had some reports of kabooms awhile back.

    I wouldn't shoot it if it were FREE.
