Have you heard about the Federal 45acp ammo recall?

Update:

If you have some, don't return it to the store. Call the number on the flyer and Federal will send you replacements.

    Appreciate the, 'heads up'!

    In fact, I have two boxes of 45 ACP, Federal, 'Champion' sitting inside my range bag, right now. Different lot #'s, though. Thanks!

    Read the frigg 'in notice again! IT DOESN'T MATTER WHETHER OR NOT WAL-MART WILL TAKE IT BACK. Call Federal; they will pay for the return.

    I understand this is all recent production. I have a lot of Federal 45acp,but I got it over a year ago and don't have the boxes anymore. I have been using some of what I bought with no issues. As I recall the boxes mine came in were red and white. Thanks for the info anyway,as I'll let my friends know too!

    Crap, I did pick up a couple boxes of the Federal red box .45acp...

    Now I'm gonna have to check that.

    EDIT: Sheeeet.... I don't think Wal-Mart will accept returns either... dammit.

    EDIT: Glock Doc: Yup. I have all sorts of free time to organize this... y'know... with a full time job, a hormonal time-bomb wife, and a baby (which has found out screaming gets it attention...).

    Likewise, I am going to somehow have to exchange the ammo... screw that. it's too much of a mess for a $10 box of ammo. Especially in my situation.

    I'm going to have to open some ammo cans. Irritating.

    Edit: Sure enough, I have some recalled Federal Champion 230 gr. FMJ. I've fired at least 300 rounds of the WM5233 sku and these lot #... I'm down to the last box of it.

    All my American Eagle and P.D. is OK, however.

    I don't have a .45 but I've got lots of .40S&W.

    No, and that's why I buy Remington and Winchester Ammo.*

    Many thanks- sir Bob......

    See folks, this forum can be useful for things other than pizzazing each other off.
