NEWINGTON, N.H., (August 22, 2022) – Sig Sauer has determined that portions of Lot No. JDAR0815 of SIG SAUER 9MM, 115gr, Elite Ball, FMJ (SKU E9MMB1-50), may have powder charge variations that could result in a bullet remaining in the barrel (i.e., a bullet-in-bore obstruction). Firing a subsequent bullet into a bore obstruction could cause firearm damage, rendering the firearm inoperable and subjecting the shooter and bystanders to a risk of serious personal injury.

I suspected they got into the ammo game as part of their government contracts.

I’ve shot tons of Sig ball ammo in my .45s with no issues. The brass quality is great, too.

Darn. I’ve got nearly a 100 boxes of sig 9mm. Some the best ammo deals ever come from Sig. They will sell Elite Personal Defense blemished 9mm in either 115 or 124 grain for either $37.99 or 39.99 and if you buy 500 rounds they throw in a lose ammo bag.

Thanks for the heads-up. Got some Sig ammo but not this lot. A BTT for the night crew.
Squib loads are no bueno...
There seems to be a hate-Sig movement and every nit makes headlines. Problems occur for every manufacturer, including beloved Glock. I think across-the-board the mainstream manufacturers of firearms and ammo do an incredible job, the issues are very few. But, alas, people with agendas will make a national story out of anything to push their view or hate.
This is not Sig Sauer standard ball, but rather their premium personal defense or law enforcement carry ammo. Hollow points;) These boxes are marked down $20 each, and if you buy the 20 or 25 round boxes the price is over $1.25 a round. 50 hollow point blemish is cheap for target or thug.
