i'll pay $1 a shot for what many consider is the best in self defense. hate to have to say "maybe it wouldve stopped em but i saved 50 cents instead." but thats just me, to each his own. no, i havent seen 9mm 50rd box yet but i'm sure they'll show up.
The PDX isn't that much better than the other stuff that's out there to warrant paying the premium for it, that's all I'm getting at. You can obviously overpay if you want, I'm not going to stop you. I've seen all the tests. It well passes the FBI test protocol... and so doesn't a bunch of ammo that won't cost you nearly as much. I'm not bashing the ammo, just the packaging and distribution model.
I doubt they'll ever show up in 50 round boxes except as contract overruns (like Q4369) or maybe as Win Ranger Bonded, which is the LE-line analog for the PDX. There's too much profit to be made by the mid levels and gun shops on the 20 round boxes. The gut feeling I get about the existence of that box is it's all marketing based. It's a "pressure upsell" thing for new gun buyers. They know they can probably get a first time CCW to suck for paying like $50 for 40 rounds of ammo at the register.
