Hey folks,
Wanted to post up about a potential issue with Hornady ammo...specifically the 45 AUTO +P 200gr TAP FPD. Just picked up a couple boxes at the local gun store (would have gotten the 230 but they didn't have any...), and happened to open up one of the boxes to oogle the fancy rounds while waiting in the car for my wife. On inspection, I found this (sorry for enormous images but hard to see the damage when they are scaled down):
Glad I looked the rounds over before putting them in a carry mag! I'm kinda shocked to see this sort of thing from such premium-level ammo. In case you can't make it out, the lot number is 3112633.
I've reached out to Hornady via the comment form on their website, will post up how they respond.
