I tried it in my Kel-tech sub-2000
that was malfuctioning with all the 115 grainers I tried through it. This is a known problem that heavier bullets and hotter loads will generally solve. It did not work with the ZQ-1 which is loaded with a 123 grain bullet. I shot some of it in a Glock but it seemed mild compared to other factory ammo that I was If you don't reload you can buy the aluminum cased federal ammo for $9.99 at wally world.

I've shot a couple of boxes of it. Not the most accurate ammo out there, but it worked just fine for me.

I wasn't badgered into giving info up, I received permission from ZQI before putting it on a forum. Don't assume anything.
I gave them a chance to answer before going on with my info.

The lot number is on the inside flap of the box.

The replacement boxes they sent me have no lot # printed on it either.

I'm looking at the ZQI box under a bright light looking for any trace of a lot number stamped into the cardboard.
There is not a trace, not a hint of an indentation. Nor is it printed anywhere or stamped in ink.
The is no lot number.

ZQ1 ammo
have fired over 500 rds through Glocks, Rugers, XD's and M&P's. Functions fine, decently accurate.

Had some. Shot some. Worked fine. For a few dollars less I'll take the Federal aluminum case stuff.

Don't know about the 9mm stuff, the 5.56 shoots REAL well out of my AR.
At that price there is much better/more prove/known-quantity ammunition available. You just have to be willing to order it online in case quantity.
$13/50 is $260 + tax for 1,000 rounds.
You can get pretty good (probably better) ammo for $240-$260 per 1,000 shipped online.
For Walmart I'll stick to buying Federal Aluminum case or equivalent for cheap when it's there.
