    With commodity prices in the ####ter and such abundance of copper and zine produced in Canada, plus the low Canadian dollar, and the fact that DND cannot possibly be buying bullets like they did between 2003 and 2013, isn't it possible for IVI to at least match PMC prices?

    I would not give those ranges my money.

    IVI 9mm is sub gun ammo. It is loaded HOT and it is LOUD. Some people like that.

    Sounds like a great fantasy! Back in the day when we used SMG's, the same ammo was used in both handguns & SMG's. If I remember correctly without looking up the CFTO, the MV was 1,240 +/_ 40 fps.

    I've clocked IVI (80s production) out of my Glock 17 at over 1350 approaching 1400 fps. I think that is +p+ territory, no?

    556 IVI uses steel at the tip for better penetration. They are good ammo.
