Norinco .45acp Ammo

[jackrabbit000]

Has anyone used the Norinco .45acp ammo the Canada Ammo sells? I'm wondering if this stuff is any good and how clean this stuff is.

I bought a case and have gone through 750 rounds. It's dirtier than other ammo I've used and have had 2 dud rounds. For the price though its a great value and I'd buy it again.

I've shot about half the 1000 rds. that came with the gun/ammo deal.
Excellent accuracy, but a bit dirty.
Have reloaded several hundred rds. with no problem.

Definately dirtier than any 45 I have shot, plus there was a thread where someone had one come out of the box with a split case. I just examine as I load the mags to be on the safe side.

Went through 250 rds, without a hitch, great ammo

i think the story was it split after being fired once.

Shoots and reloads just fine for me too!

very dirty, leaves stuff in my chamber that i have to clean every 50 rnds or so, but goes bang

I have only shot 50 but had no problems.

Ive reloaded the Norinco brass 3 times now, no issues at all.

I like Sellior&Bellot. Its a little hot compared to other stuff and isnt the cleanest. But super reliable and the hot charge means your gun will cycle when its dirty. I prefer it over win-white box and other crap. Never tried this norinco stuff
