I'm not familiar with HBN ... what is that, may I ask?


Wish I'd have discovered NiB sooner, hope the coating wears well because it has spoiled me for sure!
Here is a detailed thread on HBN;

I bought a small amount from an ebay seller, just use it on the bore and I've seen a difference in cleanup time. I have not done any real testing for accuracy or velocity but I trust ZFK's findings....wish that guy would start coming around again.

Since we're on the subject of cheaper foreign ammo ... anyone every tried the Magtech that's been selling a lot lately?

It does seem to be cheaper like ZQI. I think it's made in Brazil.

I bought a 1,000 lot of their 5.56 MK262 clone and it performs great. Word is they opened a new factory with new equipment so their QC has greatly improved over the older stuff. They have been trying to get military contracts, have gotten some from foreign countries.

Picked up a bunch of ZQ1 today. It will be too bad if Wally World DC's it as it is nice to find ammo with good brass for reloading for <50 cents a cartridge.

You can order it right from the maker for about the same price when you figure in the tax you pay at a store.
