Ammo Valley crap

[OldFatGuy]

Just spreading the word, I received 250 rounds of this from Ammo Valley in Lewiston, ID.

Have you talked to them about their reloads?

They don't have a phone number. I've sent them 2 emails, no reply yet.

Thanks for the warning.

Seems like I heard about an Idaho ammo company that had those issues. I wonder if this was the same company that maybe changed it’s name?

How was the ammo advertised? New? Reloads? seconds? They can't sell that and stay in business. (maybe it was Junk, Salvage or buyer beware)

[CPTKILLER]

That is bad.

I didn't read the fine print, but even then, "little dings" is one thing, massive dents is something else. Never again. I'm just wondering if they are safe to shoot. I don't want my AR blowing up because the brass failed.

We offer super savings on ammo. All ammo functions perfectly, but may have cosmetic blemishes such as brass staining or small dings. By offering this type of ammo, we pass the savings on to our customers at a huge discount. Some items may be sold in bulk packaging.

Proving, once again, that price is not cost...

Oh so true, but most people don't listen.

Don't even think about shooting those. Any fold or crease in metal is a weak point, I expect they'd blow up in the chamber.

[OldFatGuy]

That's what I think. Now, what to do with the crap. Maybe a reloader can use everything but the case. Think I'll put them on Armslist for $50.

[AIRret]

Thanks for the heads up!

I doubt that those bullets would even chamber in your gun without jambing in the chamber. If I were you I would try to get the company that sold them to you to refund the full price.

[OldFatGuy]

They have not replied to my emails. I just sent them another with a mention of legal action. I think, as do others, think those things could go really screwy. Inconsistent pressures in the chamber, what can go wrong? They do chamber, a couple needed a little push.
