I found 3 boxes (50 9mm) of it at WW yesterday for $8.97/box. That was all they had in stock.
It looks similar to Blazer Brass ammo at first glance.
Has anyone shot any of it?

man that is a great price, buy all u can, it is just target/paper fodder and if it goes bang then you are way ahead. I have never seen any Federal champion rounds. Our wal mart doesnt sell um. Good price was it 115 or 147 grain ammo or what???

First I've seen too. They usually have WWB in 100 round boxes for about $21.50.
It's 115gr. I bought all they had.

my 10% wifes wal mart discount that would just be a tad over 8 bucks a box, that is just a super price, not worth reloading at that price, now I wonder why I can't find any 380 ammo for under $17 bucks:eek::eek:

I put 50 rounds of it through new PM9 last week. Functioned fine. Its hit and miss around here with the WWs. I bought six boxes of it (9mm) a few weeks ago. I always check when I go in one. You just never know. I even ran across some 380 about a month ago. You just have to check evey time. They seem to always have 40s. 13.97 a box

I shoot Federal often and find it to be much cleaner and better then blazer brass. You can feel confident in buying Federal Champion and and shoot the heck out of it. :53:

Federal Champion has replaced Blazer Brass at the Walmart's in my area. $9.47/box for 9MM when it is in stock.

It shoots fine in my PM9 and other 9MM pistols.

several boxes of it at Walmart down in Kansas 3 or 4 months ago. They had 179 boxes at the time selling for $8.97. It jumped up to middle $9 range now. It shoots great and not dirty.

My local walmart carries the Fed. Champion 9mm for under $10/50. I have shot a lot of it in my MK9. Seems as good as any of the other U.S. made low end ammo (WWB, Blazer Brass, etc.).
