I pick up my Glock G20 tomorrow. After sorting through all my brass, I have maybe thirty range pickups. Starline is backordered and the only factory ammo to be found is high priced defensive rounds. Does anyone have a source for remanufactured ammunition or once fired brass. Thanks.

Be advised the ammo listed in the above link is tough to reload.
I have a 100 or so cases and the case mouth does not retain tension. If you are reloading lead bullets sized to .401" it works a bit better.

Good to know. I was going to get some myself....but I guess I shall wait.

Also from what I heard (I reload for all mine) from a buddy was that it is loaded to .40 S&W levels so you are paying for 10mm ammo and getting long 40 S&W ammo.

My buddy that bought some was dissapointed that he wasted his $.

I will agree with that. I bought some at a deal really wanting the brass. It was pretty mild at 10mm Auto goes and the case mouth would not hold tension well. It would be good for range use if you did not plan to reload it.

Not that you are going to be able to reload anything shot out of a G20 anyways unless you have a well trained hound able to sniff out brass. I have a friend that has a G20 and the rare occasions he goes to the range I tell him whatever brass bounces off me is mine to keep. Get a revolver and youll never lose your 10mm brass again.

And the factory stuff is not loaded the same ... theres a good 20 fps difference ;)

Thanks for the replies. Then dealer had a few boxes of Armscor USA 180gr TMJ's. Bought a couple to get me started. Unfortunately, all the reviews of the PPU ammo said the same thing.
