I just picked this sweet lil' thing up:
I've had the chance to put about 75 rounds of 180gr FMJ's throught it (.40S&W) this past weekend, and I really like this gun. However, the main purpose I bought this was so that I could swap the barrel out with this:
A Lone Wolf .357 SIG barrel, effectively turning my G23 into a G32. I've wanted a .357 SIG for a long time, but I didn't want something that was JUST .357 SIG; I wanted something that I could run both .40 and .357 in by just doing a quick barrel swap. I love the ballistics of the .357 SIG round, but its not very popular, and I didn't want to be stuck with a gun chambered for a "dead caliber" in a few years.
All that said, I know I can get .40 S&W ammo anywhere, and I've used enough of it that I know what I like. The .357 ammo, on the other hand, is much harder to find - especially target ammo. I've checked Ammo Seek, Cheaper Than Dirt, and some other places, and I've located some decent prices on some brands that I'm comfortable with, but I've also located some awesome prices on some brands that I've never dealt with personally. So, what I'd like to know is: Does anyone use any "off-brand" brass cased target ammo (in any caliber)? If so, what is it and how do you like it? I've been looking at picking Precision ONe and Prv Partizan in .357 SIG (and maybe other calibers if I like it) - does anyone have any experience with these brands in any calibers? Basically, I just want to have as much information as I can because I'm not a huge fan of gambling with substandard ammo.
Also, if there are any other .357 SIG shooters out there, I'd love to know any target and defense ammo you use, and what you think about it. Thanks in advance.
