Any experience with this brand and/or comments?
Looking at their .308 Extrema rifle ammo with either GKBT or SST bullet. Thanks.

for about $1800...the Auto..went to Argentina on a hunt and it
jammed every 5th bullet..DD

Only used their pistol ammo. Never had any problems.

I have used their shotgun shells and liked them very much. Shot them through a Beretta auto and never had a problem. Killed a lot of doves with them.



Bartender, bring me anything except brake fluid, cause I don't plan on stopping!

After my orignal post, I remembered putting some of their ammo thru my .223 a year or so ago, and it performed very well. Later, during cleaning, I thought the barrel was a bit dirty, but I had put several different loads downrange since the last cleaning, so maybe not.

I'm gonna give them a try in my .308 and see what they do. Thanks for the comments.

I have shot several rounds in my 223. With the 77 grain bullet, 3 shots will be touching each other @ 100 yds if I do my part. Makes a good hog round if you put it their ear.
