    Bullets from Everglades Ammo?

    I've been using Montana Gold 9mm FMJ bullets exclusively for years but for practice reloads I could see some cost savings by switching to Everglades Ammo bullets.

    Specifically 124gr FMJ Bullets Concave Recess Base.
    http://www.evergladesammo.com/y-9mm-...j-bullets.html

    Does anyone have any experience with these bullets or Everglades Ammo?

    From weighing and checking with the caliper, I know that they are not as uniform as MG but I don't need perfect bullets for practice ammo. I'll keep using MG for matches and hunting ammo.

    Any experiences or opinions on Everglades Ammo are welcome. I shoot Glocks so not interested in coated or plated bullets

    Play that song about the Irish chiropodist. Irish chiropodist? "My Fate Is In Your Hands."

    I have used several thousand of the 115g version, and just ordered 4,000.

    I never measured or grouped them, but shot a bunch though M&P, SR1911 and CMMG AR.

    I think they are a good deal and s good company.

    I have never measured them. I normally get the flat base ones and have shot a fair amount of their 124 and 147 bullets. I really like the fact that they ship quickly.

    OOS now. Anytime you can get FMJ's for .06 per bullet is a good deal.

    I hope you end up finding a good deal on bullets but I'll simply throw out there that I and a gabillion other Glock shooters run coated bullets through stock Glock barrels without issue. They're typically a lot cheaper than FMJ and usually always available...

    Plated is about all I shoot in my glocks. I have shot lots of coated but found the plated don't stink nor smoke as bad.

    Hi-Tek coated bullets shouldn't have a smell if they're cured properly. A few more minutes in the oven usually solves that issue. It's pretty much all I shoot through my pistols at this point.

    I shoot a lot of Acme coated bullets and they have a tendency to smell funny.
