FWIW, Someone mentioned in a thread a few weeks ago that agents are required to train with the same type of ammo they use in the field.ajwakeboarder wrote:Taxman wrote:The thing that bothers me is the amount of hollow point ammo in the order.

Re: 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition
Jury still out on this purchase in my mind. They could just be locking up supply and price like any normal commodity, plus when you consider the whole of the federal government, over five years this MIGHT be reasonable. By the same token, got to look at more specifics regarding the departments to which the ammo is being allocated. I just haven't done enough homework to pass judgement.
