jtallen83 Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 I got a 1.25 MOA group at 100 yards with it in my basic AR-10 with no issues. Only bought one box so I used two for a zero, shot this group, then banged the rest into the steel at 200 yards. I'd buy more if I needed any ball ammo.

cwikjr Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) I've been running it through my new build... So far bang every time and they even hit the target... Hope there is more left on payday I'll pick up a bunch for blasting ammo... For $10 a box it's worth it...

bubbasks Posted November 2, 2014 Report Share Posted November 2, 2014 Hey yall! Just back from walmart. 7.95 a box! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachmaster Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 7.95 a box!? dang! Yes, I like this ammo. I am kinda poor... so plinking with the 308 isn't much of an option, but this ammo goes bang every time for me so far, and accuracy has been acceptable for my skill level. (I am not a good enough shooter to notice the difference between a .5 moa load and a 1.5moa load, because I probably don't shoot better than 2-3 moa anyways) I stock up on this ammo, and I reload it, and I actually prefer it to Winchester white box for reloading. The cases seem to be polished more nicely, but more important, seating the primers is very nice in this ammo. It is click click and its right, whereas the Winchester white box leaves me guessing, and I simply try to apply the same amount of pressure on each round.

Morgan Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 I've been looking for exactly this thread! Yes, the ZQ ammo has been on sale and even on double sale at Wallymart, since November. If you are lucky, you may get it for 7.97 a box. You have to ask them to "scan it" though. The regular price is often the only price shown. 17.97 Every one I have put through goes off and cycles perfectly! I am glad to see that no one has had issues with it so far as DPMS does have a thing against using much foreign ammo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted December 16, 2014 Report Share Posted December 16, 2014 Shot some this weekend through a couple bolt guns and the AR - for a deviance-from-zero kinda accuracy, I didn't change any scope settings on any .308 firearms. The ZQ was still banging steel at 100 yards through all of them. It can't be far off at shorter distances, but I'd still like to try it at 300 and 400 and see how it does, compared to PMC Bronze 147gr.. Definitely passes the test as range ammo, no doubt. I'll reload the cases and see how it does that way. 3rd or 4th loading should tell me if the brass is good, in that respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boostless Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 Keep us posted on that 98, I planned on reloading the brass as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachmaster Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 I have reloaded the brass twice, but i am about as scientific as a rock. What I can say is that the primer pockets seat very nicely and consistently, much better than Winchester white box. The primer seems to click twice and be set, whereas the WWB never gives any feel. I have crushed a few primers in WWB when I first reload them after awhile because I forget that I have nothing to feel for when they are set properly.

Try a hand priming tool , you can feel everything . Tight feel or your double click ,may have some kind of primer crimp .

392heminut Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 I just bought 4 boxes of the 9mm ammo to shoot over the holidays. I'll let you all know how that stuff works when the cases are empty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachmaster Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 I use a hand press. There is a definite difference between the WWB and the zq1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
392heminut Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) Well, I can tell you all one thing about the ZQ1 9mm ammo, that schitt is loaded HOT!!!! My daughter and I shot a box of Fiocchi FMJ through that Kel Tec PF9 I got at the NRA banquet and it was pretty decent shooting considering the gun is a pretty light piece. We then started shooting the ZQ1 through it. She shot about 5 rounds and wouldn't shoot any more of it and I got through a couple of magazines full before I said fuk that! The 240 gr. 44 magnum ammo I shot in my Anaconda felt pretty good after that 9mm! So I've got about 3 &1/2 boxes of the ZQ1 left. I'm going to give it to my buddy to shoot in his Smith M&P! <lmao> Edited December 30, 2014 by 392heminut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't pay attention, and I load it for them. First thing in the tube is a magnum slug, then all #8 birdshot. They shoot a couple, look over and smile, and I say "Finish it off - Don't stop until it's empty!" :yup: That last one gets 'em! <lmao> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbasks Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 Ditto. Load up the tristar hunter mag ov/un with low base on top and a 3.5 hypersonic below. I dunno y no one trusts me anymore... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planeflyer21 Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 Blah blah blah blahblahblah through that Kel Tec PF9 I got at the NRA banquet blah blah blah blah! <lmao> Just can't quit reminding us about all your banquet guns, can you? I like a LOT of the European ammo because they DO load it hot! When i had the P32 it was S&B and Fiocchi ammo for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
392heminut Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 Jon, the Fiocchi ammo had nothing on that ZQ1 stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
