Magtech 9mm 115gr FMJ v. WWB?

I shoot Magtech 9mm, 115 gr. and .45 ACP, 230 gr. FMJ, and have done so for the past 10 years or so.

It shoots well and very clean. Very consistent.

Reason is the foregoing and the fact that it is competitively priced and seemed to be available even through the shortages faced a few years ago.

Hi Ray, I didn't do any of the measurements myself, I nabbed them from online ammunition sales pages and I seem to have forgotten the WWB muzzle velocity (1190 fps).

John, thanks for that. I like the Winchester but it's not easy to get locally for some reason and Wal-Mart often sells out. I'll order a few boxes of the Magtech and see how my Luger likes it.

Best,

Michael
