Monarch ammo from Academy

I avoid all steel case stuff. It but nature of the harder, less elastic nature of steel has to be harder on a firearm than brass cased. Plus the stuff I’ve seen friends use has been a tad sketchy performance wise. I usually buy new mfg. brass ammo then reload my own.
 
I only buy the brass Monarch stuff. Anything steel case is a pass, ESPECIALLY if it's that lacquer coat ****
 
Follow up:
I’ve shot a good bit of the 9mm and .45 that I recently bought from academy , which initiated my OP question…
Conclusion: there were no malfunctions. Brass seemed fine (I do not buy steel). Accuracy was good (hard for me to gauge, since my shooting doesn’t include very good target stands, I don’t have a rest, and I’m in early stages of arthritis, etc). But…

It is FILTHY. I do not recommend for high end or tight-fitting guns, or for competition.
Be prepared to clean afterwards.
