Nielsen Speciality Ammo- Do your QC !

[El_Teacher]

What happen the QC is not verified due to the high demand for manufacturing ? check it out what I found in a 26.8 grain/ .249 box of 325 slugs ! 

Left rows with deformed finishes , right rows whit excellent finishes 

 

 

 



What´s going on ?

Maybe leave them some feedback in the “Dealer & Manufacturer Feedback” section.

They're a great Company.....maybe contact them and let them make it right first.

Did you try contacting them and getting their response before making this post? Seems like the right thing to do is give them a chance to make it right before starting a thread like this one.

I've noticed much more damage on the edge of the dish base since Mr Nielsen switched everything to dish base. Damage on that edge has the exact same effect as a damaged crown on your barrel. It lets the pressure escape unevenly as the projectile leaves the barrel and imparts yaw on the projectile hurting accuracy. I don't know how he could correct the problem without reducing the count per box or increasing the price. I really like the ZAN packaging from the pictures I've seen but I want to buy American to support small business owners as well as take advantage of our lower price per shot. I don't know if the damage happens during shipping or when large volumes of slugs are being poured to a different vessel.

Maybe Mr Nielsen can chime in on the matter.

Should have contacted Nick first before putting this on an open forum. You have to allow him a chance to explain or make it right, which I'm certain that he will do. Everyone has a bad day once in a while.

Did he respond?

I requested a moderator move this topic to manufacturer feedback to be sure Mr Nielsen sees it.

If I understand the ORIGINAL post...He showed the slugs he received and their condition, and questioned quality control, and HE'S at fault for daring to ask such a question? Those slugs in that condition, should not have even been shipped to him period, no way, no how. What's up with some thinking he was slamming the supplier or complaining about not giving him a chance to explain how or why He received slugs like those. He was simply showing what he received and nothing else. I didn't see it as personal...it was business, and shipping slugs like that to a customer is bad business...regardless of how and why or who's fault it was. So posting about receiving damaged goods and quality control is now viewed as a attack on a individual ?....I like to call it accountability or being held accountable for one's actions, man up and be accountable...not popular with those who don't believe in it or lack it themselves, it's always someone else's fault...let the finger pointing begin.

So why is it OK to pile on FX (in an open forum) when they make a mistake But not others????

Own the error and make it right.

You take it up with the manufacturer One on One ... only when you CAN NOT resolve said issue should one post a public forum thread about it.



IMO & likely not alone in this feeling of whats just and a correct way in handling it.

YES Nick needs to be made aware of this thread ....

Thanks we'll let Nick know.

I am aware of the thread. Reviews like this are good for all including us. We will have to be more diligent.

It's really nothing new, vendor imperfections get smoothed over in places like this.

NSA has always done me right be clear on that.

Big dogs need to take the good with the bad.

CONSUMERS,equally need to accept each other's occasional faults of mass purchase and production

Im often wrong but......

I like your attitude. Stuff happens especially when you're running at maximum capacity to fill the demand. Everyone falls, it's how you get back up that counts.

Thank you for all you do.

With a attitude like that, I would not hesitate to order his products or recommend them to others.But that's just me.

Well it seems that there is no more to write about this topic , the answer of Mr. Nick I understand shows that he is aware of the situation about of the QC from his factory, hoping it gets fixing. In my post no way did i want to create controversy and those how felt offended by my writing , I sincerely apologize to all.

Regards

Now you got change to do some experiment. Take same amount of bullets Like 5 deformed and 5 not deformed and shoot one group with each bullets. Then measure results. How much deformed affect on accuracy. Or did affect at all....You might surprised.

We did same test few years back on two Corsair. 308 and results were... one group was smaller with deformed bullets and other was perfectly casted bullets. We had 2 different model of bullets. On test both shooters shoot one group with "good" bullets and one with deformed bullets. Distance was 100 meters. We did that test just for sake of experiment.
