The Civilian Marksmanship program has Greek surplus HPX for about the same or less, non corrosive[odcmp.com — listed under commercial ammo since it is not USGI surplus]. Sure fire / stored properly. good brass quality for reloading. magnetic so an issues in California. On balance I’d go with the HPX. You might want to check it out.
