45 Ammo You Can Count On
This article originally appeared at Ammoland. You can count on any and all .45 ammo, right? Can we all agree that any ammunition that says .45 ACP on the box is capable of the following? Leveling an entire city block, but it might take two rounds. Knocking an ill-tempered 350-pound wild boar into the next […]
An Inside Look at Sig Sauer’s New Ammo Factory
This article originally appeared at Ammoland. About three years ago, I had the pleasure of visiting the fledgling Sig Sauer Ammunition factory. When I say that it was in the middle of a corn field in the boondocks of Kentucky, I’m not at all exaggerating. It was actually in the middle of a farm. A […]
Handgun Ammo You Can Bet Your Life On
This article originally appeared at Ammoland. While no one I know wants to be shot with one, handguns aren’t exactly pocket howitzers. They make holes. Yes, messy ones, but holes nonetheless. A shot from a handgun might stop a determined attacker, but likely won’t. Just ask Sergeant Timothy Gramins of the Skokie Police Department. His […]
New Match 223 Ammo From Sig Sauer
Over the past year or so, I’ve tested a dozen or so varieties of Sig Sauer ammunition and found most, if not all, of them to be stunningly accurate. We’ll get our hands on some of this for formal testing and share results later. For now, here are the details from the company. Newington, NH […]
Ammo Test: Sig Sauer Elite Performance .357 Sig V-Crown
I’ve always been a big fan of .357 Sig caliber. Yeah, I know, it’s got more recoil and muzzle blast than 9mm. On the other hand, it comes darn close, and sometimes matches, the performance of the classic 125-grain .357 Magnum round. It’s hard to argue with the effectiveness of that cartridge. The good news […]
Review: Surefire Ryder 9 Ti Suppressor
There’s a little bit of silencer buying frenzy going on these days in anticipation of an upcoming ATF regulation change scheduled to take effect July 13, 2016. In short, if you use a trust or corporation to buy a silencer under the existing rules, then you and other trustees do not need to submit photos, […]
Ammo Test: Sig Sauer Elite Performance V-Crown 9mm 147-grain
The slower and heavier 147-grain 9mm projectiles worked just fine in the Clear Ballistics 10% gel block test. With the ever-shifting threat environment, it seems that much of the concealed carry community is making another quantum shift towards the Wonder Nine. Today’s self-defense ammunition isn’t your daddy’s ball ammo anymore, and if you take and […]
Sig Sauer 300 Blackout Ammunition for Hunting
I’ve tested a wide range of Sig Sauer ammo over the past several months and have been suitably impressed with accuracy, expansion, and penetration performance. Sig already offers a 220-grain subsonic 300 Blackout Ammunition load using a match bullet. I’m looking forward to testing the newest offering from Sig Sauer Ammunition, the 300 Blackout HT […]
