Default PMC Ammo?

anyone ever use (korean) PMC ammo?

http://www.pmcammo.com/

i was at sportsmens warehouse the other day...where i usually buy black hills ammo for my ARs. they were out of black hills, but had a bunch of PMC in 55gr FMJ boat-tail (which is what i generally shoot) at a reasonable price.

i didn't pick any up, but was wondering if anyone has any experience with it. if it's decent, i might pick some up.

thanks.

In my experience it's a bit dirty but not as bad as wolf. Other than that it always seem to go bang.

I've shot lots of PMC...seemed pretty decent to me. I've only used 9mm and .45 though...

If you like PMC ammo, buy it up.. I do believe they went out of business 2-3 years ago.

But heard they may be coming back.

hmmm....

Looks like they did come back. No where near the selection of ammo they had before.

As i understand it. They no longer make ammo they are strictly an importer now.

I had an issue with PMC ammo15+ years ago. Haven't bought it since.
AS posted I thought they went belly up several yrs ago.

Default Re: PMC Ammo?

I bought two cases of PMC .223 about five years ago. Every round went bang in my Bushmaster and they grouped about the same as everything else I tried.

They shot about three inches lower than any other ammo I tried though.
