Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting.......holy kaka.....What a Ride!

IDK what it means, but I bet it’s no better than a 9mm bolt

well It shoots and cycles well /groups well out to 25 yards ( indoor range is only 25yards)

stainless pistol was pretty dirty after approx. 100 rounds (nothing new)

All in all decent ammo/ did not run a crono to check speed and SD


And some of the other ammo house are listing it for less than weidners but get you on shipping cost?
