I see Palmetto State Armory is selling this stuff for about $15/box; is it worth it? I've never used it, but I've heard very good things about it. Application could range from hunting, ammo for my truck gun and personal defense. I'm running Hornady LE 62gr TAP barrier soft point right now. Thoughts?

There is better ammo out there for the money.
The MK318 is barrier blind ammo that is compliant with military ammunition restrictions.
The LE barrier blind ammo is less expensive and arguably more effective.
My recommendation would be to only get the MK318 if you could get it for less money than the LE Barrier Blind ammo.

Okay thanks! That's the kind of input I was looking for! Like I said, I use Hornady LE TAP 62gr soft point barrier blind right now, but was looking to see if there are any better options out there.
