Shot my first Silver Bear tonight. Firstly want to say thanks to those who recommended it. I paid $104 for 500 rounds at AIM.
For those who have not shot the round my experience is limited to only 40 rounds so this is just my first impression.
Was shooting at steal plates at 300 yards with my CMMG. I could not see they were any less accurate than my federal at that range. Scope and gun worked with the ammo.
The smell of the ammo was different yet not unpleasant. I like the smell of cordite and burning jet fuel in the morning so it may not be the same for you.
Had limited time so when I got back home I tore the gun down to see what I had hiding inside.
The residual gun soot was a tad bit blacker and was slightly more than what I would have expected however it came off easily with the Break Free.
I must say having only to pay $4.19 for 20 rounds which is 1/2 price of Walmart's $39.95 hundred round box of Federal might be coloring my assessment slightly.
My guns are not picky about about Mags or ammo and haven't had any issues with them shooting whatever I have stuck in them as of yet.
I have been wanting some other selections so I ordered this stuff and I plan on getting some more Silver Bear later.
