Just between you and me, I do like the Shiner product a little better, but because I work AB, I get my Zie for free - and after the first two.......

Other than that I am a bit partial to XX at certain times. AB is always looking for other brands to swallow up and there is no telling what might fall under their banner in the future.

Yeah, my only issue with them, is that they have a bad habit of "squeezing" bars, and stores, to drop other brands, or they will drop them from their distributorship, through Ben E. Keith. I'm sure other big boy distributors do the same, but I know several places, "had" to switch to ZB, and drop SB.

Re: Testing 9mm Loads in my XDM 5.2

Good report, and thanks for doing the legwork for those, who may not have the time to test ammo so in depth.

I must, however, disagree, with your beer recommendation, I have done extensive testing on that subject, mainly because it can be done at home, with no required safety equipment, and I feel that AB, was so afraid of a small brewery in Shiner, Texas, that they felt they had to brew a beer, to compete. After several grueling hours of testing, I don't feel that they have succeeded. I still will take the Shiner, over the ZB. In fact, I have found that there are several craft brews, in Texas, that will put to shame, just about anything AB, has produced. JMHO :tiphat: :cheers2:
