PMC ammunition is manufactured in South Korea by the Poongsan Corporation (ISO certified) which produces cartridges ranging from small arms ammunition to large howitzer rounds for the S. Korean military. The Poongsan Corporation dates back to 1968 and since its founding it has grown to become on one of the world's largest manufacturers and suppliers of ammunition. The Poongsan Corporation's primary mission is to make South Korea fully self-reliant for their ammunition needs. Taking advantage of their high standards required through the military's reliance on their ammunition, their excess capacity is highly sought after throughout the world's commercial markets. In the United States, their reliable range ammo has become a standard for excellence and consistency.
In addition loading cartridges, PMC also manufactures all of their own components from raw materials. This complete control over the supply chain allows for PMC to control the quality of each component providing for greater consistency than ammunition loaders that source their materials from a variety of suppliers.
This precision manufactured ammunition is brass-cased, boxer-primed, non-corrosive, and reloadable.

PMC stands for Precision Made Cartridges, a branch of the South Korean Poongsan Munitions. They've been around since the 1960s. And they currently produce almost all the ammunition used by the South Korean military, everything from small arms all the way up to eight inch howitzer shells.
Under the PMC banner, they make a wide variety of pistol, rifle, and shotgun ammo for civilians all over the world. PMC makes handgun ammo for a few different applications. And the load we used for this review was PMC Bronze in 9mm.
This is their line of value priced target and range ammo. It has a 115 grain lead core full metal jacket bullet, a reloadable brass case, and a non-corrosive primer. Despite the name, there's no actual bronze medal used in the ammo. It's all the normal lead, brass, and copper that you're used to shooting.
To find out how PMC performed on the range, we shot a couple of boxes using six different handguns. There were no feeding problems or ignition issues. And every round we fired functioned just as expected.
Recoil was moderate for a 9mm, making this is a good load for long practice sessions or for use in short barrelled guns. We used a Beretta carbine to test accuracy from the bench at 20 yards. Even with a fairly rapid rate of fire, it was no problem to get a really tight group with just a couple of fliers.
Low cost brass cased ammo is tough to come by these days. And in that category, PMC might be one of the best-kept secrets in the industry. It performs right on pace with any of the more established manufacturers and is an excellent choice for practice and training on the range.
