Default wwb 9mm squibb

i watched a bullet from a new box of winchester wb 100 pack hit target about 15" low this afternoon. bought today at walleyworld. box and ammo looks great. this is the first bad load i think i ever had from wwb fmj. fired from pm9 left a lot of unburned powder in barrel. about 35 rounds before this happened and the rest of the box after.

Glad it ended well. Squibbs really scare the life out of me.

When they don't exit the barrel, they scare something else out of me.
