    9mm Training/Practice Ammo Recommendations Please

    I'm looking for recommendations for a 1,000 round case sized purchase of 9mm ammo to be used at the range only please. I only want to buy stuff without misfires/problems.

    I already have self defense ammo on hand, Speer Gold Dot 124 gr. +P.

    I had great luck with the RWS ammo from Weapons World at 189 a case + $10 shipping. I shot 1000 rounds of it in my M&P FS and Compact with zero issues.

    Use ammoseek.com or gun-deals.com

    Buy the cheapest brass ammo you can find.

    There is no dangerous or malfunction prone new production brass ammo in my opinion.

    Some may be dirtier or very slightly less accurate but its all good.

    I would also recommend this 9mm from RWS it very good stuff and my Glocks never had a problem with it.

    Has anyone used the Aguila 9mm ammo in 124 gr. FMJ?

    I have used the Aguila 9mm from AIMSurplus.
    I bought 500rds and shot 400 of them

    Shot fine and zero malfunctions, but its a bit dirtier than WWB or PMC
    I noticed more brass shavings (possibly from the primer) inside my M&P9

    Its gtg in my opinion, but I will only buy it if its the cheapest around, not going out of my way to get it.

    BTW, The case of the 9mm has a cannelure to help discourage bullet setback I guess.
    I asked around and everyone said its fine to reload ( look closely at the picture on AIM's website to see it)

    I would have no problem using it, but that RWS has a bi-metal jacket like Russian ammo.
    Just an FYI

    I shoot Tula for my plinking. Never have had a mis-fire from their 9mm. (Have had a couple from .223Rem and 7.62x39mm, but that may have been my fault for storage conditions in part.)

    Certainly beats the socks off of Winchester White Box.

    Edit: But the RWS for about $200 per 1000 shipped- I'd go for that.

    Right now I'm shooting Aguila 124 FMJ from my Glock 17's w/o issue.

    Just finished 2,000 rds of S&B 115 grain FMJ with no issues as well.

    Big +1 on RWS/GECO training fodder as well.
