How does Corbon's quality stack up to BVAC (new / used) or Black Hills for that matter. I shoot both and have had good results. I don't know Corbon. Your opinions would be welcome. You guys didn't tell me I was going to learn a boat load when I joined up...just reading post and putting out my own post. Damn it ! I hate it when I learn stuff when I least expect it and have my guard down!

Re: Corbon versus... and learning
I have used several boxes of Corbon 260 match and one box of 308 match. Probably the best groups I have ever been able to do with factory.

Re: Corbon versus... and learning
Corbon is very , very good ammo. I especialy like their 308 in lapua brass which s great for reloading;!
The key is price, try different ammo and shoot what works best for your purpises and fits your budget

Pete Pi Jr. (Vice President of CorBon Ammo according to his business card) is a stand up guy. He did the load development on my 280AI and loaded 100 rounds of his recipe for me. I cannot say enough good things about my experience with his company.
Also, I have many friends that have shot his .308 factory loads and some of his .260 loads. They love em.

Re: Corbon versus... and learning
I've run CorBon 155 gr Scenar and 190 gr SMK .308 loads out of several different rifles. The performance was outstanding for factory ammo. Another thing I noticed is that CorBon ammo always seems to be a tad hotter (faster) than comparable loads from other manufacturers like Federal, Black Hills, etc.

Re: Corbon versus... and learning
Good intel...thanks for the feedback...now to find Corbon products at a fair price.
Price on some BVAC and Black Hills ammo I received prior to the election is now +10 percent higher..and allready "out of stock". The search continues...
