Probably it’s real. They are competing for price point buyers. AKA bottom feeding.

Filling a niche that will open up as tariffs drive imported ammunition out of the market…

…the current administration’s keeping the gun grabber’s agendas alive!

Ammunition! Powder! Primers!

Meh… PSA produced AAC target ammo is cheaper, and I can even get their 75 or 77gr cheaper per round when it goes on sale.

That said, I’m happy to see this coming to market and may even buy some to do my part to encourage more munitions production moving back to the CONUS. More choices is a good thing.
