The Federal Aluminum Cased is a new round to my local WalMart and $9.97 a box. I tested the ZQI when it was in the white box and the ammo looks the same down to the green primer. I will still test it though ;D

Both great, fired out of my Kimber Target 9 and Pointman 9 no problems.
Stocking up on it, cheap and good to go.
Love some NATO spec 9mm. This was at your wal-mart? How much did it go for?
It was $12.79 or so a box. I think WalMart has now sold out all of that brand ammunition.
Ran 100 rounds of 9mm aluminum today in the Kimber, no problems.
Ran 50 rounds of Armscorp and 20 rounds of Hornady 200 in the Delta, no problems.
Hit Wal Mart on the way home and grabbed another 10 boxes of the 9 and got lucky with a 1000 box of 22 Winchesters.
If you see the 9mm aluminum, grab it, its good, cheap and clean.
Sounds like good stuff. All the indoor ranges in my state seem to not allow anything besides brass anymore. I still have a few hundred rounds of tul collecting dust that I need to burn up. You guys have this problem at all?
