Once upon a time Thunderbolt was decent plinking ammo. I have about 300 rounds left from a lot made in 1997 that was pretty good.
I have 4 bulk packs out of 2 cases left of some Golden HP that I bought in 2006...every box has FTF, FTF, weak report, etc. I would bring boxes to group trips and let everyone use mine up instead of using theirs. Got to the point freinds only let their kids use it for blasting ammo. Ironically the first case was good ammo..and they were all from the same lot.
Remington QC has had its ups and downs, and since around 2003 / 2004 it has been pretty much DOWN. It will be quite a while before I buy that stuff to try again. And I can't see paying $50-60 for a bulk pack of that garbage when I can spend $70 and get club / low end match grade.
