Some guns seem to like some brands more than others.. :dunno:

Had real bad luck with Magtech.  Weak crimps, finding rounds in the box with bullets fallen into the casing, falling out..   If you go to the Cabela's website and search the ammo section you can find reviews of different brands

Yea some guns are picky. I've had good luck with win, doubletap, federal and hornady.

I got a buddy whose 2011 Browning 06 does not like Federal ammo(jams after thrid shot), but if he reloads Federal brass it works just fine. Go figure that out?
