Their 77gr MatchKing ammo is amazing.
Maybe you could PM me with the whereabouts....

For anything else I will upgrade to better ammo... But as long as you take care of your rifle not a whole lot that will do much harm.

Some of the stuff they make is amazing, especially the match stuff. You start getting into their bulk stuff it can be good plinking ammo, but you won't be winning any precision matches.

I shoot steel case almost exclusively, never had any wear issues...
