Can Am's reloaded ammo.Originally Posted by Still alive
I think they had a bit of trouble at first, but ironed out the issues. Still the occasional misshap happens with any ammo.
When they first brought it out I bought 1000 rounds to check it out, no real problems. So like I said, I've gone through 20 000 and just got another 10 000 that I'll start on tomorrow. I don't anticipate any problems but I guess we will see.

Interesting to hear about the issues. I've been buying from CRS and started getting some light primer strikes lately and misfires. Never happened before. So I decided to try the CanAm reloads as they were cheap. Not one problem. BUT a buddy found a bullet loaded upside down in his batch of DA ammo! So maybe still some QC issues.

CRS uses a commercial CCI primer in the 9mm, which seems a bit harder than many. I never had any issue with ignition in hammer fired pistols but sometimes they wouldn't pop when using the CX4 carbines. The DA primers ignite reliably in the CX4 though.
If there is going to be a defect in ammo, a backwards bullet type of defect is my favorite type, since you can visually see it!
If I thought the Canada Ammo 9mm was substandard, I wouldn't use it, but obviously I think it's good ammo, especially at the price point. I've seen many types of defects with factory ammunition of various brands. Federal, Winchester, Remington, etc all have their issues too, including backwards primers, bullets with out lead cores, dud primers, ammo that won't chamber, hot loads, whatever. So when I get cheap 9mm ammo and I have a cull 1 or 2 in a bulk box of 1000, I'm just not that put off. Paying $65 for a 20 round box of premium ammo and finding out half of it won't chamber in your hunting rifle is much more annoying.

1 or 2 out of 1000? I'm talking 1 or 2 in 10. Not figuratively. Literally. I got hosed. ####ed. I lost money. I work hard for my money and I'm here with 925 rounds of #### that I wouldn't give to my worst enemy. Kick. In. The. Teeth.
I want a refund.
Like, good for you with your 1-2 in 1000 story and everything, but I'm in a totally different situation here.
When you contacted Canada Ammo about a refund what did they say?

IMO, .30 cents a round for factory reloads is crazy. You can get factory new ammo for less at a cpl site sponsores. Thanks for the heads up, hope CanAm helps you out.

Do you run a range or something? From what I remember this ammunition has only been available for a year or so.
Yes, he does. So his testimony for the DA stuff is worth listening to since he will have a lot of POed clients if the ammo fails constantly!
Like I said, first time using it from CanAm and I just grab handfuls and throw them in a Ziplock and take to the range. Not one problem so far but I've only shot about 500 rds of it.

Who actually manufactures this ammunition for them? It should say on the label of the box.
