Norinco 45acp...

[st1264]

Interested in trying this stuff... I hear it's good, will find out for myself. Have to go to the range now!

Let me know what you think of it... been looking at it for a while but i'm still on the fence about actually purchasing some. Heard it's decent for the money though!

Great ammo. At $0.33/round you can't go wrong.

Comes out hot, almost through my 1000 round crate, gonna buy another.

Ok what I found....

1) It's dirtier that other brands I've shot but that is fine
2) A few rounds had some chunks missing from the brass when it was loaded
3) I've yet to come across a round though that couldn't be fired

 

[go_DWI]

Sounds good to me, probably going to have to go pick up a crate then!

It is definitely dirty and hot. I have had a more than one split case from the crate I purchased. The brass is thin and in my opinion not ideally suited for reloading. All in all you can't beat this stuff for the price.

I have used this ammo. For the price you can't beat it. I bought reloaded ammo for more than this price and with China slowly paying their people higher wages, these prices won't be like this for long.

I have shot both, they work

Dirty as heck but it functions reliably. I initially had issues reloading it but they were quickly solved. Go ahead and buy some. I probably won't buy anymore myself cause my 13 cent reloads are a heck of alot cheaper.

if you dont reload and plink only, buy it and dont look back, i doubt that the case life is as good as non-chineese stuff, but if you reload light, who cares, your cases will last forever anyways

I know that I have reloaded Norinco 5.56 mm brass at least 5 times, maybe more and it is still going on strong.

im about 200 into this crate, and i had 250 i bought awhile back, every single one went bang, and its brass. ive been collecting all my brass incase i start reloading. i will be buying more, as the price just went down again, its only 329$ at canada ammo!

Left my brass, shot 50rds in my German Sig 220 (2nd favourite pistol now, behind my HK USP 40). Norinco ammo shot 100%, looks a little dirty though. Very happy with my purchase.

Out of curiosity is anyone else's brass tarnished? Got a case at the beginning of the month and noticed in many different boxes there appears to be a spot of corrosion (like the tip of a finger print almost) on 30% of the head stamps.

I bought a case and plan on shooting 500 rounds next weekend. Really glad to hear that it's decent ammo! I feel much better about my purchase now. Thanks for everyone's input!

 

[st1264]

It is good ammo. I did a search on CGN and found good reviews, even for reloading. Happy with it's performance so far. Goes bang with a little muzzle flash, fun times.

Is it non steel core? Need some ammo for the kimber on the way.
