PSA: Barnes Ammunition Safety Recall–Affected Lot Numbers Listed
http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2017 ... rs-listed/
This morning I received an email from Barnes ammunition announcing an ammunition recall that sounds more serious than usual. That said if you have any of this ammunition within the listed lot numbers call the number in the press release below and arrange for it to be returned. Above all, if you have any of the affected ammo don’t shoot it!

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.
