Rate this ammo

[anmckenn]

in what order of quality (accuracy, burn, cleanliness, punch) would you guys rate these cheaper brands of ammo:

American Eagle
S&B
Norinco
Fiocchi

I heard the European stuff is slightly hotter, any opinions?

 

[fiddler]

S&B is not a cheap brand of ammo. Inexpensive yes, but cheap no.

I think the Federal American Eagle is just above the Champion line of ammo. And one of their more popular lines.

S&B is excellent ammo. I find their .45 acp to be hotter than Hornady's +P stuff - better velocitites anyway.

might make a good sticky . . .

Where's some good places in Canada to get the deals on bulk, Ive found Frontier Firearms is pretty good, CanadaAmmo, but they don't carry much. I find Le Barron to be pretty good for rifle ammo, but not for bulk. Any other good ones out there?

Oh ya, the S&B brass is excellent for reloading.
