They go bang most of the time, but if you don't have a smooth feed ramp going into the chamber, they will get hung up now and then. My last box of 50 I had 1round that wouldn't go bang at all, not even after a re-strike.

They will work just fine as target/plinker ammunition. You should test a box. If you pistol has issues with flat-nosed target ammo, you will have issues with hollow point self defense ammo more than likely.

They are not hollow point (pretty sure you knew), but they are flat nosed FMJ

James G is right though. For plinking, its kind of good. That way you can practice clearing jams too. Its fine for practice. But I would never trust it loaded in my kel-tec in my nightstand. But for range use, its fine as long as you don't mind a jam every mag or two.

White Box has been a staple of target shooting for decades. Great practice ammo.

They are full metal jacket round nose and we use them in competition and they work fine. I was given 10,000 to compete with a few years back and they all went bang. They make 125 power factor.

Winchester makes good ammo as well as do other companies. As far as how they will compare in a kel tec the only good way to find out is trail and error. Your gun may or may not like theses shells or others. Best way is to purchase a couple different brands and see what your gun likes best, and in the process you get more range time in as well. Hope this helps.

Full disclosure, mine are 147 gr 9mm Winchester FMJ. Mine are FN, I haven't tried 115 gr since the 147 gr performed so poorly for me. I am soured on all white box ammo. Many people feel as I do, others don't. Michael gave the best answer, you gotta try it and see what you like.
