Hi All,

If PMC ammo shoots well through your rifle or handgun, then nevermind my post. I was at the range a week ago getting ready for the season and tried out some cheap PMC 160 Grain 7mmRM cartridges. They made an 1.25" gone into a 6" gun. This was their base line of ammo, just want to give you guys the heads up or as the cliche says, "You get ehat you Pay for." With Remington 150 gr, it is back to 1.25".

Their pistol ammo kept blasting me with powder out of my GP 100 and the guy next to me kept jamming his .45 GM with it.

Happy Hunting.

FWIW, my #1 in .375h&h loved PMCs 270gr 'X' loads, under 1". Just goes to show that all rifles / loads are different.

I bet I know where your coming from. Trying to practice much with a .375 H&H can be a fair hit to the wallet. That was my goal as I paid $11.00 a box for what I usually pay $25 to $30 for.

I am glad they work for you.

I bought some PMC ammo for my 9mm pistol. They kept jamming after every shot. I finally got fed up with them and chunked them in the trash.

Actually hunt4, I had loaded some 'X' bullets getting ready for an African hunt & my local shop didn't have anymore bullets but had a couple boxes of ammo. I never could beat that PMC for accuracy w/ my "x" handloads.

I had a box of 45/70 PMC, after the second round would not chamber correctly in my Shiloh Sharps, started checking the brass, what a bunch of junk, tossed them right away.

I like the PMC pistol ammo. It's all I use for practice in .45 Auto. Works great in my Colt Goverment, Colt Commander, Sig P220, and a S&W 25. The brass reloades well. Some are going on 10 plus loadings.

The only rifle ammo I used from PMC was in 7x57, 175 grain soft point. This was the mainstream loading in a red, white, & black box. Shoots well enough from my Vz24. Again, the brass seems to reload well.

Shot my first deer with PMC white and red box 6.5X55 140gr sp. They shot pretty good in my sporterized m38. They were and still are (if they're as advertised) I believe one of the hottest factory load for the 6.5X55. I never clocked them but they're listed at 2850fps for the 140gr.
