The brass cased Monarch has always been rebranded PPU (Prvi Partizan) from Serbia. Interesting to see they've rebranded Brazilian ammo now. Brazil is the headquarters for CBC Global Ammunition which is where Magtech products are made. Magtech Ammunition Inc. (in Minnesota), acts as a master distributor to the U.S. market.

This ammo is not very consistent. I can shoot all 14 rounds and about 5 or so will be about 6 inches off while i keep the red dot planted. I proved this by using Blazer Brass in the same gun and landed ALL 14 rounds in the same 2 inch group. swapped back to monarch and same issue, about 5 will be off by 6 inches. Its cheap ammo and i will still buy it.

Picked up a box of monarch today from Academy sports and outdoors. Use a $10 coupon which brought the price down to 49.99. Can’t beat that price for a 250 round box, monarch makes great ammunition..

Still in stock in my area. I had 2-$10 off coupons which brought it down to 39.99 per box for 2 boxes. The rest still a good price for today. I've not had any issues with this manufacturer. Also, Monarch .223 is competitively priced at .55c per rd. I think the "old days" with the old prices are behind us. Take care.

I just went to Academy last night for the first time ever since it was recommended by a friend, and I'm so happy I did it because I found these Monarch ammo it's only $12.99 a box of 50 but mine are zinc coated Steelcase. I just bought a couple boxes of those, and was very surprised to find 50 round boxes of 40 S&W monarch for only $21.99. I like to support my local shops but I am always on a strict budget and their cheapest nine was always over $20 a box and almost $40 a box for 40 S&W, so I'm definitely taking the a little bit of extra time to drive to Academy from now on. Can't wait to see how these things do in my Springfield Hellcat:-)

Academy had their Monarch 9mm 115 for $11.99 a box .... Went there and ALL of then were pulled from the shelves because of a printing issue. Somehow someone printed Made in Argentina on their boxes. So legally they cant sell that ammo because of a misprint. I was like, $12 a box is a steal .... thats black Friday prices. So anyway had to grab the Blazer brand at $13 a box which is still a great deal but damn that $12 a box was it ....

@@madmarine1078 from the Academy sales person, she showed me their corporate letter and it said to pull the ammo off the shelves due to a mis-print on where it was made.
