Winchester whitebox 115gr FMJ value pack

[Trebor]

My CZ 75's eat it up, but it is the only ammo to cause stovepipes in both pistols. I've only had 3 or 4 in 500 or 600 rounds though, so I don't worry about it too much. Glad it's not defensive ammo though.

My pistols eat the 9mm and 45ACP up! Shoots as good as a lot of ammo that is "supposed" to be more accurate, but costs lots more. I have fired over 1500 rnds of it in 2 years, never had a jam, failure to feed, or any other gun malfunction with it. I have had "1" round fail to fire, tried it 2 or 3 times, in 2 different pistols, did not go off. Ended up throwing it in a ditch where I shoot, kinda wish I had taken it home to see what was wrong with it, suspect a primer failure.
Costs me $9.68/100 at Wally World, after 10% employee discount. I don't have the time in my life to sit around reloading 9mm for that price. Yes, it only costs between $3 and $4 a box, but my time is worth more than that.

One of the indoor ranges i go to bans loose packed win. white box value packs citing "jams and squib loads"

Personally i think they are full of it and are just bitter because they were loosing ammo sales to Walmart.

anybody knows where to get the value packs anywhere except Wally World?

I've heard that the WWB 9mm Value-paks are made in Israel but I don't know this for a fact. I don't have a chronograph but the 50-rnd seems a little hotter than the 100-rnd stuff. Both shoot fine and are accurate enough for plinking. The .45 ACP WWB shoots very well in my Kimber.

All of my guns shoot it perfectly except my xd subcompact. The subcompact gets a failure to extract every 2-3 hundred rounds. I jsut chalk it up to some extra practice in clearing jams, and continue firing away. The other 9mms in my stable dont even stumble over it occasionally. It has decent recoil, decent accuracy, shoots fairly clean, and its extremely cheap. what more do you want?

Galyn's carries them as well, at least in Michigan. They are a couple bucks more, but Galyn's does have a price match guarantee. The catch is they will only match the price if the competing store has the item in stock. Call Wal Mart first, find out if it's stock then go to Galyns and get the ammo with a 10% discount because of the guarantee.

I buy mine at Gander Mountain - $10.96 for 100 rounds of 115 FMJ - shoots well in my Sig with perfect reliability.


I've heard that the WWB 9mm Value-paks are made in Israel but I don't know this for a fact.

All the boxes I have bought have it printed clearly - "Made in USA" .

I've shot thousands of rounds through my BHP with no problem - it's my standard practice and IDPA match load.

I've also shot this stuff extensively in two Glocks, a G17 and a G26. The ONLY problem is when one of the ladies in my life shoots my G17 - "limp wrist syndrome" surfaces and the pistol malfunctions.

Ive shot 1000+ rds of wwb through my Hi-point with no jams, and no problems. Went and bought a BUNCH of the stuff and the lady behind the counter looked at me like "Do you really need all this ammo???" (I know that look well )

Am also wary of shooting 1000's of brass jacketed through favorite pistols. While not absolutely sure, beleive the brass jacketed may wear out rifling quicker than copper jacketed.
END

Yes but the money saved on the ammo will buy you a lot of barrels.
