Remington UMCs

I found these in the mega boxes for a decent price about $60 for 250 rnds. Are these comparable to the WWB? The guy working behind the counter didn't know squat about anything and was really no help.

I think bass pro shops have them for $52 for the 9mm. I believe they are just like the WWB wally world brand.

Used Remington UMC 9mm for a training day class with my wife, between the two of us 800 rounds no problems. I think they are as good or better than WWB 9mm.

I like them and will use which ever I can find cheaper for practice.

I've shot the UMC's in my .45 with no problems and they are as accurate & reliable as the WWB.............................but I can buy the the 9mm WWB 100rd for $18.42 at Walmart. 300 rds at that price is $55.26 before tax. It's cheaper & you get more ammo.

UMC and WWB use different bullets, the WWB are actually a couple mm longer than the UMC but have no affect on performance. I have used both and have had no problems with either. I stick with WWB because its cheaper $16.14/100 vs UMC $51/250. However you get these really nice black trays with the UMCs that I would highly recommend you keep and reuse, they are very sturdy
