Where have you been?

The coating is nickel, in order to aid lubricity in the guns feeding mechanism. They cover the brass case and the bullet itself.

I have two pistol caliber carbines 1 Marlin camp carbine in .45 from years ago great gun and I reload the caliber. Also have spare parts for it.. And a Henry Big Boy in 357/38 special both great. No more stuff for me. I already have plenty I I don't get to shoot as much as I would like to. People are sitting on their ammo I have plenty. So I go when possible

Good presentation, but I'd really like to see how this performs in gel.

yah, compare it with Hornady Critical Defense

Excellent review video! I’ve just gotten an Aero Precision EPC-9 complete upper & stripped lower that I put together, and I have to sheepishly admit that I was oblivious to the problems 9mm AR barrels have with hollow point. Had I known, I would have looked into options for barrels with feed ramps like from Macon Armory rather than sticking with the Aero Precision barrel in their complete upper. That said, though the Sig Sauer 147 grain hollow point fed horribly in my EPC yesterday at the range, the Norma FMJ I used fed great for the most part (I chalk the few rounds that didn’t up to teething troubles with a brand new gun). So, I’m eager to try their MHP rounds as soon as I can get some!

I want to buy some of this ammo, but haven't seen a proper ballistics gelatin test performed using denim yet. It looks like promising ammunition, albeit a bit expensive. Norma makes top-notch ammo

Ok fan boy. Glock has feeding problems like everyone else and it doesn’t matter if it ammo or poor manufacturing. There’s always an issue somewhere, sometime, somehow.

What ammo has given you trouble in your Gen 5 Glocks? Would be interested in trying them in mine.

Since I don't own a PCC, I had no idea about feeding issues. This makes lots of sense. I saw a gel test and I was highly interested. The Norma ammo is not barrel length dependent. A Sig 290 actually penetrated a little farther than a G17 in bare Clear Ballistics 20% gel.

@TWANGnBANG

ClearBallistics is a really cool product. I’ve used it many, many times. However, I’ve come to suspect it penalizes certain bullet designs because it is so much more elastic than either living tissue or FBI gelatin.

My PC9 runs all ammo fine, with the glock magazine.

Do you prefer the CMMG or the Wilson Combat AR9? I know the Banshee is about $500 less than the WC. I prefer the WC.

I all so use the 147 g jhp in my PCC and no problems.

Too bad the only cycling issue I've ever experienced in any semiauto pistol was a glock 19 gen 5. Known for having a short throat (look it up I am not the only one) causing failures to go into full battery once every 100-200 rounds. Switched to a M&P 2.0 because of this as I didn't feel comfortable relying my life on those odds. Blind 100% confidence in glock with those statements is dangerous, and I love my glocks otherwise

@@TWANGnBANG dont get me wrong I'm not bashing you, or saying your opinions aren't valid, just that either personal or professional bias is inevitable and as a reviewer you have to be mindful of that. I work in medicine so we are hyper sensitive to bias in medical journals and stidues; its unavoidable but important to scrutinize in the peer review process so that's where I'm coming from. Regardless my point was simply to say that no manufacturer is immune from problems here and there. I own many glocks and of course they have one of the best track records, but if it's a tool I'm going to trust my life to if I experience a malfunction I first assume it's the gun and rule that out first, in my case, it was a rare instance of overly tight tolerance leading to not running 147gr HSTs reliably. Anyways just rambling at this point, carry on
