I have a case of Magtech .45 that got submerged in water for a while, and I got it at rock bottom price. In a box I get anywhere from 2-8 that won't fire.
Great practice.

Re: Ugh, monarch rounds = no thanks
What is a jam?Russell wrote:Went shootin' today, decided to get the absolute cheapest rounds I could get at Academy because, well, you don't need expensive rounds to target practice.
I usually get CCI Blazer for the XD-9, and she loves 'em. Never had a jam, missfire, anything. Yeah, the rounds are dirty and I have to clean her afterwards, but the price savings is worthit.
Monarch's were about 50 cents cheaper this time so I decided to try them instead, and ended up giving a full and 3/4 full box away at the range, as I got 10 rounds in and the 11th jammed, 12th jammed, and 13th round misfired. I wasn't very happy.
So I do advise against Monarch for future ammo purchases. Couldn't even call them "ok" quality.
