Not much to say, I got these for my Mosin and after putting about 40 of them through it it hasn't blown up in my face and there haven't been any duds. Overall nothing spectacular or over the top but the smell/fumes from them are pretty bad, I'm guessing it's the corrosive primers but definitely not something i'd want to use at an indoor range or on a day with no wind. But they are waaay cheaper than the stuff at Cabela's and seem to shoot just as well, and the crate it comes in is solid and will make a great ammo crate for years to come.
