2Awarehouse and Capital Cartridge - site and reman ammo review

[Moonpie]

I’ve shot Freedom Munitions “Blaster” 223.
I ain’t scared of nothing.










Just kidding, I stopped shooting it after about the 10th blown primer.

You crazy using that stuff.

I guess I used to be crazy.

I don’t shoot it anymore!

Update on the reman ammo.

It shoots great, feels normal, no jams (250 rds), no sparks flying. I shot some really good groups, like 1.5-3 inches, first time I ever hit all 15 shots in the bullseye.



The only issue is that they seem quite dirty. After shooting, a lot of gunpowder or soot sprayed out of the ejection port and got all over my arms, esp my right arm facing the port. This has never happened before to this extent. I showered with soap immediately after I got home. Cleaned the guns later, and they had quite a bit of soot on them. Maybe more than steel, but hard to make an accurate comparison. At least sparks didn't fly like the steel ones.

Update on reman, shot another 200. This time had 4 malfunctions.

2 failure to eject (empty casing in barrel), which caused a third malfunction: the next round jammed against the unejected casing and punched the bullet into the casing, much like those three short rounds in the OP. 4th malfunction was a jam, which occurred on my likes-to-jam Kimber solo, so it's not surprising.
Of these 4, two malfunctions on the Kimber solo that shot 45 rounds.

So far, really not that bad at all, much better than that terrible ammo I bought from the gunshow, which was more expensive too.

Wanted to provide update on the 2Awarehouse reman 9mm. So far they have been working well. They only really jam in the guns that are not well-lubricated and in Kimber solo. I ended up pulling the bullet out to the proper seating on the casing and they went bang. Even the one punched in so far I couldn't pull it all the way out, I shot it anyway as a single shot and it went bang. And during a failure to eject, one casing blocked another round from coming in, and that new round ended up getting its bullet punched in as a result. I shot that one as a single shot later on and it went bang. So overall no problems at all. I'd say this is a great deal, as long as you're careful with the punched in ones, shoot as a single shot in case they are squibs.

I would be upset if I had 4 malfunctions in a year. I pay for quality guns and ammunition and I expect them to perform properly every time.
