American companies are still more trustworthy and produce better quality goods.

Do they now? Ever fired Remington Thunderbolts or UMC ammo? Has got to be the worst current production ammo on the market today, period. If 5% of Thunderbolts fail to go off, you're very lucky. Winchester white box is pretty suspect too.

In Russia, who knows what quality controls they have in place?

Most of the ammo in question is actually made for the American market, as gun ownership is much more severely restricted in Russia and there's thus less of a market for ammunition. Perhaps years of anti-Russian indoctrination has left some people believing that the Russians are stupid, but I am pretty sure they understand the idea if they make a product that's labeled as non-corrosive when it is corrosive, or a product that's dangerous, or works badly, people won't buy it, and so then Russians don't make money, and believe it or not, they like making money as much as anyone else.
