    Winchester 9mm Recall

    I haven't seen anyone post this yet, so I thought I would leave this here:

    Winchester is recalling 9mm ammo of certain lots made after March of this year.

    Edit: I just noticed that the site is not working well, so here's a reddit about the recall.

        I brought this up a long time ago in some thread or other- with the ammo factories trying to crank out ammo as fast as they can and hiring as many people as they can- is the QC going to be the same as it was pre C19?

            At least the ammo cost 4x as much though.

                I just checked my stash of recently acquired Winchester 9mm 115gr FMJ... Thankfully, mine was all GTG.

                It's a little confusing when you check your ammo on the website. They mention product symbols and lot numbers. My boxes matched the product symbols, but the lot numbers were all okay. I called Winchester, they said the only thing to be concerned about are the lot numbers.

                Winchester Ammunition has issued an official product recall for the Winchester 9mm Luger 115 grain pistol ammunition.

                  Yeah, it's scary, because they're making squibs! But only ammo manufactured after a specific March, 2021 date, and only those lot numbers. I don't think I have any Winchester ammo that was purchased after that date, but I will check my ammo anyways.

                  Edit: I was wrong! I had 400 rounds which were purchased in April. Thankfully, the symbols matched, but not the serial numbers. I quadruple checked. And will check again tomorrow.

                      Wow! It looks like a lot of ammo is affected. I would have thought they would notice thr problem before they crnaked out so much defective ammo.

                        Doesn't include ammunition made before March 2021. Was there ammunition to purchase this year?
