    I've shot a few hundred rounds of .40 WWB and had no FTFs....I know Target Master won't let you shoot it though! Had 2 100 rd boxes with me 1 time and had to go put them in the car then unload my magazines...gr.....ended up having to spend $30 for 100 rds on top of the $48 I just spent at Walmart for 200 rounds...

    I've only encountered one round of 9mm WWB that was totally smashed and not shootable.

    The biggest problem I have recently started encountering are the 100-count boxes don't always have exactly 100 rounds in them. They are often off +/- 1 or 2 rounds.

    No problems in several years of shooting it. I reload the brass, too.

    I taught Chuck Norris to bump-fire.

    Ditto here too. My XD has about 900 or so through it and more than 80% being WWB. Never had an issue here.

    I also shoot the UMC Remington and Blazer Brass with no problems either. Just put a box of Blazer Brass through it on saturday.

    If Glock made a pistol I could fit in my pocket without requiring me to wear parachute pants, I would have!

    But in the other post about WWB from WAL-FART. The fella said it was blowing apart at the neck and left a ring in the chamber with a stuck shell. So it ended his day of shooting. If I remember correctly, it was on a HK forum.

    But as others will say, Its good for plinking only. quick fix of the trigger finger blue's...

    I think there are other brands out there at local shops. Yes you will pay a buck or 2 more a box. BUT at least you know it will be better quality than the WAL-FART cut corners stuff.

    I guess its best to say, you get what you pay for.

    What is the name of the rifle manufacturer that will void your warrant if you use Winchester White Box?

    WWB is manufactured both in the USA and Out. From reports on other sights the stuff that is made out of country tends to have the problems you are describing. Check the Ammo before you buy it.
