[Willy M38]

I am just looking around for good practice round in 9mm. Does anyone know how reliable are brown bear ammunition? at .13 cent a pop i think that is very cheap. What do you think?

Ive never had a problem with it in 9x18 or in 7.62x39. Havent tried the 9mm yet though. I find its good stuff and its a bit cleaner than the Wolf brand.

It jammed in my Beretta, was ok in my CZ75.

Joe,
Were the jams due to the mag/FTF?

I ask since I had some that didn't like certain mags. With the new coated mags it fed fine.

Does brown bear in 9mm get lacquer in the chamber?

I have shot a lot of this and never had any lacquer show up anywhere. This stuff is good.

I got a "spam can" of this on GonBroker.com at a really good price. The cost was $180 for 1440 rounds.
