lightguy Posted April 29, 2018 Report Share Posted April 29, 2018 (edited) https://www.federalpremium.com/shoot-more-challenge/ Sounds like this would be ideal especially in a gun with a cutts compensator to reduce lead fowling.https://usarmorment.com/45-acp-c-1_318/federal-american-eagle-syntech-45-acp-230-gr-ae45sj1-1000-round-case-p-3100.html Edit; going to find out just ordered !

Speeddemon02 Posted April 29, 2018 Report Share Posted April 29, 2018 Ive read that competition shooters love it. Read that normally they would shoot about 1000 rounds between two guns cause using just the one would get too hot and be uncomfortable. Whereas this ammo allowed more rounds through the same gun and not worry about the heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adg105200 Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 I'm guessing you will have to clean your gun a little differently. Possibly acetone? Interesting. Let us know what you think once you get out on the range. Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petroleum 1 Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) Interesting stuff I wonder if it feeds a little smoother. I have run the plastic ARX ammo in handguns and it fed fine. The syntech is a little pricey but let us know how it runs. thx Edited April 30, 2018 by Petroleum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gijive Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 Here is the link to the .45 ACP 230 Grain https://www.federalpremium.com/ammunition/handgun/family/american-eagle-syntech/syntech/ae45sj1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petroleum 1 Posted May 1, 2018 Report Share Posted May 1, 2018 I know they make .45acp I just didn't see .45acp listed on the op link. The cheapest I can find the .45acp is about .32cents a round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightguy Posted May 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) The deal I posted is gone. But processed by US Armorment and haven't heard a word otherwise.Waiting to see what shows up at the door.If its real I may shoot it one for one; Plastic and metal alternating. Back again but now listed as 500 round case not 1000https://usarmorment.com/45-acp-c-1_318/federal-american-eagle-syntech-45-acp-230-gr-ae45sj1-1000-round-case-p-3100.html Edited May 3, 2018 by lightguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firearm Posted May 6, 2018 Report Share Posted May 6, 2018 At the wholesale level it is listed at $75.02 for a 200 round lot, freight paid. That comes out to about 37.5 cents a round. Don't know if that is 4 boxes of 50 or what. Of course, "out of stock". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightguy Posted May 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2018 (edited) Its been 2 weeks and no ammo on the front porch and no word from them. Gonna call next week. If the "real" price is close to .40 /round I'll probably pass. Interesting concept but not .40 / round interesting.
