Ammo brands to stay way from?

Hi

I was just wondering on what kinds of brands of ammo to stay away from. From your experience with different kinds of ammo what is good and what is bad? I just want to know a few out there. All I have ever shot was winchester and federals.

I'm recently new to the shooting scene.

thanks alot!

Wolf is the only one that comes to mind. Granted, problems are few and far between for them, so it's not completely dumb to use it.

If it were considerably cheaper I'd probably use it, but for a few bucks more I can get Winchester White Box.
