380 ACP... Norinco vs. Barnual?

If the Barnaul .380 is like their 9mm, it can't be reloaded if that matters. The Norinco is about $17.50/ 50 rds. I can get S&B for $19. The norc isn't that great a deal. Can't speak about the Barnaul
 
Havnt tried the Barnaul yet, but shot lots of "norc" (which if you look up online actually says its South African), And shot lots of Am eagle, The Norc is a little more dirty but not by much and it is nice re loadable brass. And I shot just as good with both if that helps. The Norc was cheaper a few months ago, I picked up 2000 rounds and went back to buy more a few weeks later and seen the price had jumped.
 
I bought 1600 rounds of the Norc last year at $8.50 a box... It's great!

I was a little hesitant bc its norc... and I have a general distrust of norc in general... but seems like most ppl are saying its fine. Wish there were more options for 380 but I guess its just not super popular in Canada. Cheers.
