would you guys shoot re manufacture ammo in 9 mm ? the company has since closed. I don't know if they just weren't profitable or had law suits for bad reloads.

If it's not new/reputable mfgr or loaded by me...not in my gun.
Don't take candy from strangers or possibly explosive items.

When the Dr. asks, "How did you end up in the ER today?"
You'll be able to day, "I saved $0.10 a round!"

Bullets with a known pedigree are ALWAYS cheaper than a trip to the Emergency Room.  Laughing

My thoughts are 1) what components were they using?  2) have I personally shot any of them?  3) is the load data available - or at least the velocity data?  

If they were dismantling surplus government rounds and reloading with different powder (as was one company I heard about), I would definitely not shoot those.   Give 'em away.

9mm no factory ammo is cheap enough and if you want to tailor loads just reload yourself. Zeke Normandin is good and I think Zero has a program....High pressure round not much room for error. 

For service pistol, Atlanta Arms or Zero is what I would use.

Thank you guys, I have decided not to shoot these rounds and I will not sell them or give them away because I would have to live with myself if anyone got hurt. I decided to pull the bullets, dump the powder on my lawn. I will use the cases and bullets with my powder and load data.

Re manufacture ammo, a fancy name for reloads.  Nothing wrong with reloads as long as they are my own.  Don
