Introduction:

Detailed Analysis:
What Shooters Praise (The Pros)
The majority of reviewers report flawless cycling and firing, with several users having run thousands of rounds without any failures to feed, fire, or eject. However, infrequent complaints of misfires (rare dud rounds or higher failure rates in isolated batches) appear, particularly in the last set of reviews, but these remain outliers in largely trouble-free experiences.
Feedback highlights dependable feeding, accuracy sufficient for training, and compatibility with a broad range of 1911s, Glocks, Sigs, and Kimbers. Users consistently praise the ammo’s reliable operation in different pistols, although a few note slightly dirtier performance and smoky, sometimes sandy, residue after extended sessions.
Price is a major selling point, with repeated emphasis on value for bulk purchase and frequent commentary that PMC is less expensive than competitors—especially for brass-cased ammo. Customers regularly state it’s among the best bargains available for its quality and reliability.
What to Know (The Nuances)
- Cleanliness: Opinions are slightly mixed; most users find residue manageable and cleanup easy, but some note powder residue, occasional sandy deposits, or unburned powder especially after high round counts.
- Casing Material: Brass-cased; reloaders can reuse these cases, which adds value for some buyers.
- Misfire/Failure Rates: Several users report near-zero failures after thousands of rounds, but isolated cases of occasional misfires, duds, or slow slide returns are present in a minority of reviews.
- Shipping and Service: Shipping speed and customer service from vendors receive consistently high marks.
- Not Match Grade: While accuracy is generally praised for practice, a few note it’s not intended for match or precision use.
- Bulk Value: Multiple reviewers buy in large quantities and view PMC as a top choice for stocking up.
Conclusion
PMC .45 ACP is a strongly recommended option for shooters seeking dependable, affordable practice ammunition. It offers reliable performance with most handguns, solid accuracy, and brass cases suitable for reloading. While rare misfires and mixed cleanliness reports exist, these are outweighed by the overwhelmingly positive experiences noted by most users. This ammo is best suited for those focused on range use and training who prioritize affordability and overall function.

The ammo is nice and shiny and goes bang 250/250 times. If you point it at a target well, it will hit it. Been running it through a new G30 (Posted on 9/28/2014)
