F N M Ammo ???

Has anyone used any ammo manufactured by F N M ? Is it good stuff?

I found some, online. for the 8mm Mauser at $29.00 per 100 rounds. 5 boxes of 20. Non corrosive, boxer primed, reloadable brass.

100 rounds of brass is $27.99 + shipping on most sites I've found.

That's a good price. What bullet type are they. If they're the expanding type they're worth it, but if it is just the brass I don't know.

This is Portugese made, and is excellent indeed! I have used both the boxer (reloadable) and Berdan types, usually in FMJ bullets, though they do make it in soft point. I have used FNM in 8mm Mauser and .303 British. I buy it whenever I can find it.

I found this ammo at:

I asked my gunsmith about it today and he said it was good stuff.

that's not a bad deal at all for current production ammo
