Details

Serious shooters know that buying ammo by the case is a great way to both save money and hone their skills by getting lots of practice time in. This 40 cal ammo made by Magtech provides a great value for high volume shooters looking to put some serious rounds down range. This ammo features boxer-primed, reloadable brass casings topped with 180 grain full metal jacket bullets with a flat nose profile. This ammo is not attracted to a magnet so it's good to go for ranges that prohibit "magnetic ammo".

Magtech ammo is made in Brazil and has built a reputation for reliable quality at a reasonable price point. Magtech makes their own primers and brass and by controlling the components going into their ammo they can produce highly consistent ammo at a competitive price point.

Detailed Analysis:

What Shooters Praise (The Pros)

Reliability

The vast majority of reviewers report flawless functioning, often citing hundreds or thousands of rounds without a single misfire or malfunction. A few reviewers mention light strike or feeding issues mainly in specific models (notably Glock 23, Glock 27, and Beretta PX4 subcompact), suggesting the product is highly reliable overall, but may have occasional compatibility concerns with some firearms.

Performance

Accuracy and consistency receive strong praise, with many users noting clean burning and good grouping. Those using the ammo for target and practice work consistently describe it as clean, with low fouling and excellent feeding in most modern handguns and carbines. Occasional reports of finickiness in some pistol models are outliers rather than the norm.

Bargain

Value for money is a standout feature. Customers highlight bulk pricing, frequent sales, and rapid, reliable shipping as significant positives. For high-volume shooters, the cost per round, combined with the reliability and performance, is frequently cited as the best deal available.

What to Know (The Nuances)

- Generally described as a very clean-firing ammunition with less fouling than some competitors
- Cases are brass, enabling easy reloading (no reports indicate otherwise)
- Some Glock (23/27) and Beretta PX4 Storm users report primer/light strike or feed issues; these concerns are model-specific and not widespread
- Occasional variance in performance across specific firearms may be due to gun design or ammo batch differences, not a systemic flaw
- Bulk orders are common and shipped quickly with excellent packaging, often arriving within 2-3 days
- Consistently positive customer service and shipping experiences via BulkAmmo

Conclusion

Magtech .40 S&W ammunition is widely endorsed by customers for its reliability, clean performance, and exceptional value, making it especially well-suited for range days and bulk training sessions. While some isolated reliability issues have been reported in a few firearm models, the overall track record in most pistols and carbines is outstanding. Shooters seeking cost-effective, clean, and dependable target ammunition will find Magtech to be a top-tier choice, with the minor caveat to test a small quantity first if using less common or finicky firearms.
