If you can find it, buy some of the CCI gold dot stuff. Great personal protection round for the caliber.
Also, Hornady and Cor-Bon have made a couple batches over the past years also. More expensive but quality if great.
Funny story about the corbon rounds I found in this caliber.
When I opened the box I found some wood pieces in some of the HP's. I bought them anyway and then mentioned it to the corbon rep the next time I ahd him on the phone.
He started laughing. It turns out that I the box I bought was made when they were still a very small company and the wood chips were from his work bench :lol: I shot one box and kept the other as a fond memory of hte company.
I mostly shoot the ammo you have posted above and the Russian stuff like the silver bear. Good target stuff ;)
Thanks for the information gunrun45. CCI gold dot, check.
The Corbon is the Powerball round, correct?
The Silver Bear 94-95 grain does shoot pretty good. It is one of the cheaper of this caliber, but it goes through my PA-63 with upgraded slide and main-springs flawlessly.
Currently looking for a deal on a Makarov.

Actually the mak ammo that corbon made that I have is just HP stuff, not powerball ammo. They might make it in powerball now, I'm not sure.
Hope to take the mak out this weekend if we do not get dowsed by snow.
So one of these boxes will be going.
