Thread: Odd finding with new American Eagle 124 grain

    Getting wet sound to me like a carrier issue in transit. Who delivered the ammo?

    Again, the cling wrap and outer shipping box were dry with no visible water damage.

    Same here. Boxes were dry with no signs of moisture present. I picked mine up directly from the target sports warehouse.

    I think Target Sports needs your call before Federal does. That sure as heck looks like a vendor problem, not a factory problem.

    Well, this was the response from Target Sports after chatting with their online chat and sending them requested photos, frankly I am a bit surprised by it.

    Ammo that cheap with free shipping on cases of it doesn’t surprise me that they’re cutting costs somewhere. Might be time to start buying ammo from Luckygunner.

    In the flyover zone
    Has there been any flooding in that area in recent months? Looks like water damage to me.

    I've purchased about 15k rounds of 9mm through them in the last year and a half...this is literally the first issue I've encountered with them. I always go pick up from their warehouse as it's about 5 minutes down the road.


    We've had a rainy year, again not sure if they're having issues. I just snagged another case of 115 fiocchi and the stuff looks pristine, have had the same experience with there S+B 115 and 124 as well as aguila.

    I'll reserve judgement on TSUSA for the moment, until after you talk to Federal. I hope this isn't the start of some circle-jerk run-around between the two of them. That would really stink.

    Also just re-reading your original post; if you're noticing a difference in recoil from them, I'd definitely not shoot them any longer, as that to me indicates powder contamination.
