so today i took my 23 out to the range. with some stock Federal premium 180g FMJ's .
had about 200 rounds to play with so ran through about 150. and my hand really hurt due to my lack of grip sleeve. decided to keep 50 for when the zombies come *spare bucket*. as i was packing up my range bag i noticed a 50 round box of tul-ammo i had bought a few months back and decided to get rid of it.
the ammo was normal aluminum casing 180g FMJ. so i loaded up and went back to my target *soda cans* and took aim. fired. and something was different. the recoil did not hurt my sore hand. so i fired 5 rounds single handed and the recoil was at LEAST 50% less than the federal. even though they are both 180g.
fired the rest of the ammo and started collecting my brass *for more reloading fun later*. as i was doing this i noticed that 80% of the casings from the tull ammo were either split, cracked or warped after being fired. also on a side note the tull ammo was much less than accurate.
suffice to say tul-amo is junk. and i probably would only use it if i were letting my girlfriend play with my glock because she doesn't like the recoil of .40S&W and to be honest. tul-ammo felt like .380 reloads at best.
so has anyone else noticed how weak this ammo is?>
