worst ammo ever ???

American, also branded Amerc or ADE. I've shot a lot of Tula ammo and while it's not top quality, Amerc made it look awesome in comparison.

I've actually had really good luck with Blazer Aluminum and consider it to be a cut above the typical practice ammo out there. It is more likely to set back than brass cased ammo, in my experience, but I've never had that become an issue except when a round was rechambered.

+1. You can actually get Blazer with Speer Gold Dot bullets loaded to the exact specs as Speer does in 50rd boxes for about the same that Speer charges for 20rd boxes. Only downside is the aluminum cases, and as JohnKSa mentioned they are more susceptible to bullet setback. But seeing as I almost never rechamber practice ammo it's no big deal.
 
Remington and Federal bulk pack .22 LR - especially the Walmart-specific versions.


Tula is low quality, for sure; but it isn't the worst.
 
+1 to the Blazer aluminum cased ammo.
Had some in 45LC with the JHP bullets. Would not function in my Ruger Vaquero and kept locking up the cylinder.
After checking the rim dimensions, I could visibly see the significant variations in rim thickness. Some so thick that it was the rim which was binding up my Vaquero's action.
Never had any issues with any other ammo in that Vaquero.

But, I've never used Tula ammo in anything either...
 
MFS

I would say MFS. I bought one box of fifty .380acp a few years ago. I had 18 misfires and 2 fail to feed. I never bought any more of this junk. I don't know if if is even still available. I bought it during an ammo shortage, 2008 I think. Something is better than nothing usually, not so in this case.
 
This is a hard question to answer but if I had to choose the worst it is probably Blazer Aluminum. It always feeds and shoots fine with no malfunctions, it just doesn't seem to be as accurate as others. I don't view it to be a bad ammo just the worst I have used.

As far as TulAmmo goes, I have never had a single issue with it, in fact just ran 50 rounds through the Bersa 380 4 days ago without a hiccup.
 
The lacquer or whatever it is on Tula cases makes pretty good hot glue. It seems to be less of a problem with semi-autos because the case normally doesn't stay in the chamber long enough to cool.
