dont buy herters ammo

[scarecrow]

save your money buy something you know! i just bought a box of herters .380 from cabelas and i cannot even get a round to chamber into the barrel of my LCP or my friends P3AT. i called cabelas for what it was woth and was basically told tuff they wont do anything about it. and neither will herters..also you should know this crap is made in indonesia. if i saw that when i bought it i would not have bought it. but thats my own fault i was in a rush....

My Dad bought 20 boxes of the Herter's .380 from Cabela's last week and has run at least 200 rounds of it through his LCP......

Only problem he has had, was that they are Berdan primed and not reloadable as is.

Well by posting it up here, people will think twice before buying cheap ammo there again.

Thanks, I almost bought some of that or the buffalo +P.

I decided to purchase locally with a better manufacturer - lucked out.


I don't even know if the SIG P238 will take +P - paper work says nothing about it.

What ammo do you recommend then?

You might want to reconsider.
