Default G24 in 357Sig range report preview! It ain't good!!




Fifty rounds of Federal shot great!

23 rounds into shooting Minuteman Munitions - 124g - FPTMJ (RL) , I had a squib with barrel obstruction In my brand new KKM barrel that I waited two months for

This is the second squib load with barrel obstruction I have had with this ammo. The other was May 2016 (How time flies) in my Sig P226....

Unhappy

Sounds like Minuteman Munitions may have some quality issues.

Is the barrel ok?

It sure sounds like some bad ammo. That always worries me about "remanufactured" ammo or someone else's reloads.

Same here rman. I will not shoot someone else's reloads. I have over the years bought reloaded ammo thru estates. Those get the bullets pulled and the powder disposed of.

I don't recall ever having a problem with remanufactured ammo, but it was in the 70's since I fired any.
