    I also like Titegroup, though I don't remember it ever having a sweet smell. Does burn clean though.

    I lumped two things. Titegroup is clean in burn and smell. Universal Clays in some applications fouls with unburnt powder, and has an almost cloying sweet smell. But what I asked is which smells worse, PMC or Russian commercial camel dung pistol ammo?

    Ah. What's worse? Easily the ruski steel case stuff, although it varies in smell between brands and lots.

    Typically Tula smells the worst. Like cat piss.

    Of the steel case ammo I've shot, the "bear" brands have been ok, as well as the later imported Chinese ammo with dark, almost, black laquered cases. Both smell less bad than Tula.

    Thanks. I've never trusted PMC enough to buy any, but if I ever consider doing so I won't be excessively concerned about a stench. I've got a small amount of Russian commercial ammo that has an unholy stench and wouldn't want to be putting money into anything that has a similar or worse stench.

    The PMC is on par with any commerical brass case I would say. Some of their 80s production Korean milsurp 7.62 nato came in a couple years ago and was supposed to be pretty good.
