I usually stick with american eagle or the winchester 100 box, both about $30 for 100 in 9mm, but for the price I might have to give that monarch a try, if it's any good. for target shooting anyways. think i'll definately have to grab a box of the remington 9mm.
I've shot quite a bit of it, and had no problems.

Cool, well I suppose the only way to find out for myself and my weapon is to give it a shot. I just saw the price and my ears perked up. I'm really trying to learn about finding the best deal on ammo wihtout sacraficing too much quality. So lets see how it works out of a semi brand new m&p. Thanks for the input

Monarch Brass no problems Kahr CW40, Taurus PT140, Kahr PM9. Takes a few extra swabs at cleaning time but no unusual feed or ejection issues. For practice it works, buy some try it each gun seems to have it's own preferance.

I've shot probably 500 + rounds of Monarch brass. When it is on sale, it makes sense.
Still however, Walmart Winchester White Box (100 rounds) are a better price at about $20 / 100, where Monarch is $12 / 50.

guess i need to check walmart then, to be honest i never have. I'm usually not very impressed with their cporting good sections so i never visit them. if they have win white box in 9mm for $20 that'd be the best deal yet. gander wants $30
