It functioned fine for the most part in my Auto Ordnance 1911, but it had a strange odor to it after firing that I felt under the weather afterwards. Despite that, my range session ended on a high note as I have improved my grouping.
Michael D.
First time buying PMC Bronze Ammo. Saw the great price and good reviews, so I took a chance. I was not disappointed. Accurate and no malfunctions on 1911 or striker fire handguns.
Juancarlo E.
Solid .45 range ammo. For the price PMC is hard to beat, never had a quality issue. Wish it was a little hotter, but for the range that would be asking too much at this price.
