I went by Bass Pro again today (took the kids this time) and they have even more 5.56mm now. It's all Independence, and it's $10.97 for 20 rounds. I took a picture, but it is very blurry and not worth posting.

They must have just gotten a shipment, because there were a few other calibers available too. A handful of 9mm, some 38 and 380, and a surprising amount of 357. Tiny bit of 45.

I had found info attributing Independence to Brazil, but that was several years old and not resolved, just an "I think" type comment. Thanks for clarifying it.

Any idea where it is actually shipped from? I am not too far from Independence, MO myself these days. Might have to make a field trip up there to see it for home school. :)

Hey all

Just went to the Bass Pro Shop here in Springfield, MO. This I guess is the 1st one, and the biggest? It's pretty huge alright.

I came across something there I hadn't seen before while browsing the ammo section. I found 5.56mmx45 rounds from a company named Independence, in a blue box with a white star on it.

It was the only 5.56 / 223 they had in stock, but they had boatloads of it. Probably 200-300 boxes there on the shelf.

It made me think "what's wrong with this brand?" when I saw it.

Any experience with it?
