With David's results I bucked up for yet another box of Armscor to see where it's at. I will break the 1006 in with it and see what the Match gives again. I think BVAC is doing the loading and has backed it down but haven't checked another box until now. Next Tuesday will be the day!

I have the same box in pic from Target Sports USA.Did not use yet,intresting to see what you get out of the Match.
David's results were much lower. It's sad we don't know what we are getting there. I'm of the opinion unless you get a good deal somewhere just buy Underwood! You know what you are getting!
I just bought 700 rounds from cheaper than dirt, figured it would do ok for breaking in the new Glock. But I also bought 500 rounds of Underwood as well.

Thank you very much. ;D
I did Chrony with the new 1006 today using a new box of Armscor. All my questions answered in one day but then I knew the answers. Got this from Gene today:
I tested some 10mm ammo a while back and it Chronographed better than current lots. Any reason why the newer stuff isn't as good? Does BVAC do the loading?
Armscor / Rock Island Armory The newer ammunition are loaded b
y Armscor Cartridges Inc., formerly BVAC. -gene
Has the loading been reduced?
He never answered that one. We all know they were and I'm a little peeved it took this long to acknowledge what I knew about BVAC/Armscor. These results today confirm they are back to BVAC's old loading so nothing special!
1137, 1140, 1142, 1173, 1171. Average = 1152.6 FPS/ 530.86 LBS. I'm going to run some through the Match the next time out so I can change all their numbers around, etc... You will never see the old load again!
10mm,a tough racket.Thanks to UnderWood.Thanks for clarification on Armscor.
