Alright, well, I finally took my DPMS AP4 out to shoot it. I only had 100 rounds of Ultramax .223 re-manufactured rounds, but a friend of mine brought 80 rounds of PMC Bronze.
The Ultramax ammo performed flawlessly through all 100 rounds- no malfunctions, accurate, etc. However, out of the 80 rounds of PMC, about a dozen or so didn't fire. The firing pin hit the primer, but the round wouldn't fire. Of all of the rounds that happened to, (we re-loaded them into a mag and tried again) only one fired.
I was just wondering what everyones' thoughts are on those two brands of ammo? Has anyone had similar or dissimilar experiences with either brand?
I really like the ultramax, but I don't think I'd buy the PMC. The PMC has a much nicer looking box, but the performance just wasn't there.
Any opinions are welcome.
Thanks,
