Anyone use Load-X ammo?

[mike_the_wino]

Browsing through their catalog I found a few things that peaked my interest plus they are nearby in Santa Rosa. I am specifically looking at the 68gr BTHP and 75gr BTHP for bench rest betty.

Anyone got any suggestions for what to feed a FAL(.308 is on page 8) for pigs? Anyone use a FAL for pigs or should I stick with my 30-30. The spot I go range is from 80-150 yards so I was thinking .308 would be better past the 100 yard mark. The FAL shoots pretty good with surplus and irons which makes me curious about a scope and good loads.

Thanks!

No one has shot this ammo?

Guess I will TOFTT and see how they perform. Sticking with new manufacture and with a 1/12 twist on the FAL guess I will go 'chef's choice' and see what they recommend.

Stayed tuned for an update and piggy AAR.

I used them once. Got, I think 250 or 500 9mm reloads. Feel was not a whole
lot different than miwall reloads.

Out of the batch, I've had a few obviously bad ones and they slipped though
quality check. For example, bullet loaded into a .380 case and obviously damaged
bullet. Failure % *seem* higher than miwall, which for me is usually 5-10 out of
1000. Sample size for the batch is probably too small to draw a good conclusion.
I'd not mind buying them again for plinking if the price is right.

I haven't used any of their stuff in over 20 years. I did order x-treme bullets from them once cause they were a dealer for them back then and shipping from Santa Rosa was cheaper then from NV. (Before flat rate shipping)

ive used lots of their 45 acp fmj it isn't cheap but it is quality and you get some far out headstamps to reload

I've been shooting Load-X for almost 15 years as my target ammo. It works; no complaints.

It turns out not to be cheaper than shooting "factory" ammo because I just end up buying and shooting more within the same budget.

I would say the first 2,000 rounds shot through my Jericho were Load-X. I think it was $80 for 1,000 back then. I can't remember any problems.
