AMMUNITION

Because of the dangers of poor or nonexistent quality control standards among
some companies and people who make reloaded ammunition, and the well known
fact that dangerous overloads and underloads (squib loads) sometimes occur, we
recommend that only good quality factory ammunition be fired in our products. If
you prepare your own handloads do not exceed recommended pressures in line
with those generated by standard factory loads as manufactured by Remington,
Winchester, Federal, PMC or other reputable companies. Do not use + P Ammo
or High Velocity High Pressure Ammunition.
