Staring down the barrel
Jim personally tests each rifle sent to the shop for tuning. Each rifle gets real time on the range…not just “book loads”.
THEY TEST ALL THE BIG 50 BMG RIFLES AVAILABLE ON THE RANGE
Rather than use “book” loads Jim shoots all the different rifles on the range, records the data, and determines what shoots best in each brand of rifle for each type of bullet offered.
WE MAKE THEM ALL!
We make wildcats, standard, Weatherby, Lazzeroni, Ackley, and make more rifle cartridges!
State of the art Test Equipment
Arizona Ammunition uses all of the best test equipment offered and keeps it current by sending it in for recalibration frequently. They measure bullet speed, recoil, barrel temperature, and more on each rifle.

Look at the concentration here!
The ONLY way to know if the rifle and ammunition shoots are to test it on the range!

Why Is This Ammunition Different
There is a direct relationship between the ammunition and the construction of the rifle; factory, custom, old or new, the chamber depth in comparison to the box magazine length effects how the ammunition performs. If your chamber is tight or loose, if you have slow or fast twist rifling, both effect the performance of the rifle and the ammunition. Solids, bronze, copper jacketed, and lead bullets all shoot differently. Hard and thick jackets may have higher pressure and shoot differently than those bullets with thin jackets that may have lower pressure. Now there are VLD's, LTB's, TTSX, single shot pistol, moly-coated, and more styles of bullets to use than ever before and they all shoot differently. While there are more selections of bullets giving you more options, using them correctly is more difficult than ever before. Some shoot great and perform poorly, and yet others shoot and perform great!
This ammunition is not "hot loaded", but, it is fast, and meets or exceeds all voluntary industry specifications in every way (SAMMI). ARIZONA AMMUNITION, LLC.® ammunition is made from new components and is rifle and game/use specific. For example, if you are planning a Whitetail deer hunt using a Remington 700, 30-06, ARIZONA AMMUNITION, LLC.® has ammunition for that specific combination. THIS IS NOT A RECOMMENDED USE, IT IS THE ONLY USE TO GET THE MOST EFFECTIVE AND BEST ACCURACY. The focus is on several important aspects of ammunition development. They are:
- Matching bullet style and seating depth, case, and primer to the rifle's chamber and box magazine.
- Matching bullet and powder load to the intended use. Type of game and expected distance of the shot is a primary consideration. Type of terrain and environment are important considerations.
- "Tuning" new cases to insure that it is the proper size, length, weight and completely prepared to perform to its maximum potential.
- Matching the ammunition to the rifle type, style, manufacturer and specifications of the rifle itself. Details of barrel twist, trigger pull, barrel length, barrel taper, bedding, and other factors are important in developing the best possible ammunition for specific rifle or type of rifle and the intended purpose.
- Every round is hand weighed on laboratory grade scales, hand seated, and checked for overall length and bullet run out for extreme accuracy.
- We use coated bullets, using the patented NECO and ACCULUBE 10X process. Coated bullets help reduce fouling which helps maintain accuracy. Coatings reduce friction which helps extend barrel life. It is our experience that coated bullets will help make an accurate rifle remain accurate longer during firing, but it will not likely make an inaccurate rifle accurate. Bullets that foul easily will continue to foul, but not as quickly. In many cases to enjoy high velocity bullets, a coating is required to maintain accuracy after as few as 10 shots!
- Benchrest prepared cases are used on all ammunition. We use new Remington cases, size them, debur the flash hole on the inside, re-cut the primer pocket flat and round, debur the case neck, and trim (In some cases the necks are also turned). All cases are cleaned and inspected. This is the best case you can get.
WE OFFER A CUSTOM CASE (brass) SERVICE TOO. WE BUILD CASES TO CUSTOMERS' SPECIFICATIONS INCLUDING NECK TURNING AND ANNEALING. ALL BRANDS OF CASES ARE AVAILABLE.

Why Does This Help You?
ACCURACY! ACCURACY! ACCURACY!
Custom tuned ammunition that is game/use/rifle specific is optimum ammunition. The manufacturer of typical firearms uses machines and tolerances that are held to aircraft standards in precision. The action, barrel, and stock have been engineered to give maximum performance. No detail is too small for custom manufacturers. Each custom rifle is made one at a time for each user. Even some factory rifles use extremely tight tolerances. Why use mass produced ammunition?
Hand-loaders learned years ago that custom tuning ammunition to each rifle improves accuracy and performance. Bullet manufacturers have made bullets for specific use in target or game ammunition. Testing these combinations takes many hours, days, weeks, and years. Field testing on game is a long and tough process. While there are excellent factory loads on the market today, nothing beats custom tunes ammunition that is gun and use specific. That's where ARIZONA AMMUNITION, LLC.® meets the increasing precision requirements of the serious shooter and sportsman. ARIZONA AMMUNITION, LLC.® works with custom rifle manufacturers, shooters, and sportsmen on specific use ammunition. We test bullets, cases, powder, and primer in many conditions and combinations to develop the best loads we can for a specific use and rifle. We guarantee all of our ammunition to specific accuracy depending upon bullet and rifle. We go to great efforts to meet our users needs by providing the best possible combinations at a reasonable price.
