This is my favorite 45 ammo. Nice and toasty like WIN M1911, but one of the cleanest 45 auto I’ve seen. Costs less too. It’s the all best for me. Burned through over 2 cases this month.Free shipping! I will be buying more from Target Sports USA very soon!
David G.
This ammo is top notch. Clean and accurate out of my 1911 and all four blocks no malfunctions. None. Target sports is awesome as always try to find some for the same price and free shiiping. Don't worry you want. Target sports is my ammo HQ.
Bryan H.
I really didn’t put much credence in the thought that there was a lot of difference from one ammo to the next but this ammo shoots significantly more consistent and accurate at least in my gun. Great price for this ammo at Target Sports USA
