Magtech has been on my top-three list for range ammo for years:
Fiocchi, S&B, and Magtech. Really like PMC too, maybe a little more than Magtech even.

I see a lot of people who can keep count. I’ve been shooting magtech for maybe 600 rounds now? Not a single problem or failure in my shield or Canik. I don’t know how many rounds I’ve shot through each though. I can just subtract how many boxes of magtech I had bought vs now and get an idea of how many rounds I’ve shot but wouldn’t be able to tell how many was through what gun.

I just know how much ammo I have, and how much I shoot when I go to the range, couldn't give even close numbers. But I know I have over 1k through my vp9
and some of you guys have seen this, some not. Condensed version from Ikes thread.
PSA 16" CHF Mid-length 5.56 NATO 1:7 Upper (FN stamped barrel)
Special lower for a local shooting forum by New Frontier Armory
PSA Premium BCG
BCM polished trigger group
Trijicon MRO on Larue 1/3 QD mount
This was an intended budget 'nice' AR. Think I did alright.
For paint, it's all Aervoe, the brown is Drab, and then Olive Drab. Was just a quick go, didn't give anything time to dry, didn't take my time, didn't really give a fawk.

My M14 does not like Magtech for whatever reason (Stuck cases), but my BCM did really well with their 77 gr product. I've never had an issue with their handgun ammo.

Actual Round Count x .15 = advertised correct round count.
Pretty hard to do that equation if you're missing the first number.

Isn’t the standard “less than 200 rounds through it” sufficient?

Because they seriously don’t. I’ve only bought a hand full of used pistols in the past...if they were ever shot at all they did a damn good job cleaning them...
Average guy selling a gun probably bought it and shot a box or two of ammo through the thing over the course of a year and then decides to sell it.

Heading up to Fort Collins tonight to catch the Rams at their new stadium with my old fraternity roommates. Should be a good time. Supposed to be a really nice facility. Odds of a hangover are high.
My Huskers are probably going to get curb stomped by tOSU tonight. I'm numb to it at this point. I almost hope they get their doors blown off and keep tanking the rest of the year so we can finish nailing Mike Riley's figurative coffin shut. He's everything I was afraid he was going to be . . . and less.

Only used gun I’ve bought is my hi point. Dude said ~200 rounds and the internals determined that .15 equation is accurate. I’ve also sold guns with the 200 rounds through it, but they were maintained and that appeared accurate, despite that being .15 the truth
