Who here uses Sellier & Bellot ammunition? It's made in the Czech Republic. I've fired hundreds of rounds of the stuff through my CZ-97B without incident.
I was reading some of John Farnam's Quips and Quotes and he repeatedly refers to this brand of ammunition "trash", referencing squib loads and out of spec cartridges.
Now, like most Gun Gurus, Mr. Farnam seems to both know what he's talking about and be extremely opinionated. He favors Glocks every bit as much as Jeff Cooper favors the 1911.
In any case, it peaked my curiosity. Who here uses a lot of S&B ammunition? Any problems with it of note? Any problems with it that seem to occur more frequently than with American ammuntion?
