Olympic 9mm FMJ Greek ammo

[Bartholomew Roberts]

I'm considering buying a few cases of the Olympic 9mm on sale at ammoman.com for $119 per case. Has anybody here used this ammo and what were your experiences with it?

[SAWBONES]

Yes, I bought a case, and was disappointed.
Accuracy was poor, there were some hard primers (3-4 per box of 50), and the stuff was dirty and underpowered.

I prefer NATO spec, and won't use any other 9mm for practice anymore. Ammoman frequently has surplus NATO spec 9mm fodder, and the modest cost difference is worth it, to me. Best.

I bought two boxes and shot one from a FM High Power and a Colt Combat Commander 9mm. No jams, no hard primers. Accuracy was better from the Colt than the HP. I haven't shot the second box yet but will try it in some other guns and then decide if I want to buy more.

If you are near Dallas or any Sports Academy store you can get Blazer for 80.00 per case. On my way to Talladega last month I picked up 5600 rounds.

I've used it in a variety of guns with no problems. A tad dirty, but Fiochi seems worse.

300 or so rounds thru my CZ75 PCR, no malfunctions of any kind, accurate enough (I haven't put any on paper, but it goes where I aim.) It is dirty, though.

Dunno if I'll buy any more after this case is thru.

i just shot a case of the ammoman $119 olympic ammo.

It's smokey, however the accuracy is decent, no malfunctions.

however, it feels more like 115gr then 124gr.. the fiocchi 124gr i normally shoot is significantly hotter.

Local store has fiocchi for $139 a case, I'm gonna run with that for a while, but the olympic is a good deal.

Thanks for the replies. The Hi-Power I would be running it through smashes even the hardest primer with no problem; but it sounds like I should check out Sports Academy since it is nearby.

If anyone knows of a good source of relatively cheap (budgeted for up to $139 a case) of 124gr NATO spec ammo, please share.
