The local indoor range requires the use of this ammo. i have never had a fail to feed/fire/eject anything using this. i have run approximately 400 rounds down my Rock River Arms AR-15 carbine. The only thing that sucks about this ammo is the red buildup you get on the extractor face. This is very unimportant because it comes off easily with Hoppes #9 or break-free CLP (powder solvents). i think the price is great and you definitely are getting more than your monies' worth @ this price. To all the guys claiming this ammo is no good, I KNOW you are mistaken. I have bought this ammo from the range, from this website, and several gun stores in the area. i have NEVER had a problem and I use several different mags. iI suggest you try using a decent brand of rifle (not a Bushmaster!) or at least keeping your rifle clean. After 200 rounds or so you should clean the rifle. also, if you are NOT going to use the rifle for an extended period after you shoot it, you should clean it. the Ar-15 is probably the easiest rifle EVER to take apart and clean. At the very least clean the barrel, bolt, and gas tube. I remove the extractor and the buffer spring and clean those areas thoroughly also. I usually clean it after 2 or 3 trips to the range (60 or so rounds per trip). Check out youtube.com if you are unfamiliar with the cleaning process. Field stripping videos are available there. You need no tools to field strip the entire bolt carrier group, just a bullet and some fingernails.

Great, cheap ammo. Works just fine just rather dirty. I put 40 rounds through my Bushmaster modular carbine and inspected after 5, 10, 20, then 40 rounds. I noticed that the red primer stuff gummed up my bolt way too much for only 40 rounds so I won't be buying more unless it is for a bolt action. (No one likes replacing ejectors.) Happy with accuracy and decent expansion @ 120yds.

I'm a combat vet, and i have had more jams with military issue ammo than with my wolf ammo. I shoot a Kel-tec SU-16, and have never had a jam or misfire yet. I use this ammo for target and big game hunting, no worries. I use both wolf 55gr hp's and sp's, shooting @ 1 inch patterns @ 100yds. So to the ones who have problems, sometime guns can be like a good woman, picky about what they want.

i've put about 1500 rounds of wolf through my rock river entry tactical. when i first got it, it jammed and stovepiped and did everything else. a friend of mine was shooting the same batch and didnt have any problems. after a couple hundred rounds things started to look better. it is a good round for just going to the range also look at the price. just remember you get what you pay for.

Look, trust me when I say this, its not the user, its the ammo. This Wolf ammo is not worth the time nor the money. I to wanted to put 2000 rounds through my DPMS ar-15 for cheap, but in the end, I wasted a day at the range, more money buying better ammo and a trip to the smith to get the jammed casing out! Anyone want to buy 1999 rounds of wolf .223 cheap?!?

I agree with other reviews that a CLEAN gun is the #1 Key to great shooting, however don't blame the ammo for all problems. My .223 is an H & R SB2 single shot. I also shoot a .280 Rem. and a .22 Hornet from the same Stock, Frame & Forend. All three digest any ammo I feed them, and trust me, they have never been hungry. I also agree, that if you are on the "hunt of your dreams" or need self defense, choose a better quality product, but again, you only need one shot. If you just wanna' bust caps and have fun, concedering the price and quality, Wolf is hard to beat for that purpose. I'll buy more Wolf!!!

Bought a few boxes of .223 Wolf ammo to plink with recently, through the Ruger Ranch Rifle. Stuff worked just fine with the factory 5-round mag, but I encountered some problems with my 30-round aftermarket mags. One of the 30-rounders would perform just fine, no flaws, but two of 'em wouldn't allow the Wolf ammo into the mag- the bullets were a smidge too long. Of course, it's the aftermarket mag (which works just fine with every other brand I've shot through them); the factory five-rounder chowed through the Wolf without problems. Overall, I'da given the Wolf "five bullets" were it not for the size problem with my aftermarket mags. Considering the many positive reviews elsewhere in this listing, however- I'll buy Wolf again, and invest in better aftermarket mags. HARV

Wouldn't finish a 10 round magazine in my PLR-16 without stovepiping on a empty, failed to extract, case. Gun is well maintainted, cleaned and oiled. Runs lake city like a top. Wouldn't ever buy this again. I like my extractors too much and don't want to have to replace them on a regular basis.

I Own A Ruger Mini-14 Ranch Model. Wolf Ammo Is What I Shoot 99 % Of The Time. I Have Never Experience Any Jams Or Misfires With This Ammunition. Like Previous Review Say - It Does Leave A Little More Powder Residue In Your Gun Barrel But Hey ! Look At The Great Price You Pay. And Always Clean Your Firearms After Every Use Anyway. All Firearms Are Different And Function In Different Ways Depending On The Type Of Ammo You Use. My Ruger .308 Shoots Off Brand Ammo Better That High Priced Popular Ammo. My Advice Is To Use What Works Best In You Gun.

I agree with everyword Brad and Rhoda commented below, all my weapons are in the same grouping as he mentions, and if you take care of your guns and take a lil time to clean wolf ammo is great. Its not no Hornady vmax or anything of that nature, but when u wanna just pray and spray a forrest down, can not beat this stuff.

first couple boxes seemed good, but on 3rd box ammo seemed to make my gun into a single action, cleaned gun and mags, but made no difference, next box fired fine though, wouldn't recomend for home defense

I am on my second case of Wolf 223 and every round has fired with no problem from my bushmaster AR15 M4. I also clean my AR15 after every trip to the range.

You cant beat this ammo for the price. I ordered 12 boxes & my Mini-Ruger 14 loved them. All 240 rounds worked just fine. Only problem I had was with 2 of my $10 20rd mags >--- the last 3-4 rds would not chamber correctly, BUT this was not the bullets fault...something wrong w/the mags. HIGHLY recommend this ammo at least for target practice - you cant go wrong. I suspect any problems would be user, gun or mag error >--- the ammo is just fine & I will be ordering much more asap!

Could not get this ammo to work in my S&W MP-15. Effectively reduced my semi-auto to a bolt action rifle, had to clear and charge every round. I stopped trying to use up the ammo after it jammed my bolt forward and I could not clear the rifle in the field. I believe the steel casing and the heavy fouling left behind after firing each round led to the rifle not feeding properly. I've since used only brass ammo by another manufacturer and haven't had a malfunction since.

I have not bought any Wolf from CTD YET! I have, however, used Wolf in my Bushmaster AR, Glock 22, and my Chinese SKS. Wolf did use a Green case with some kind of lacquer on it. That was dirty and I had a few rounds stick in my AR. That was then, now with this new Gray case I have had no problems AT ALL! Yes you should clean your guns when you are done. That is responsible gun ownership. I recommend a higher quality ammunition if you plan, and you should, to use your gun for personal protection and/or home defense but using this stuff at the range is a smart choice. Also spend the money you save to get some quality mags not the cheep ones. They will last you longer and preform better so you can shoot more Wolf and trust that in the time of need you gun will not let you down due to a faulty mag. I had some cheep mags (to save money to buy the expensive ammo) they did not work.

All my weapons are military grade; hence, they will eat anything i feed them; like the were made too. Most problems are user error. Wolf ammo is a bit dirtier than others, but, look at the price difference. When i shoot, I clean my guns (ALWAYS) and it is part of the fun. I love the smell of gun cleaners & oils...and napalm. (In the A.M., P.M.) People are basically lazy and stupid. And always complain. There is absolutely nothing wrong with Wolf ammo......just user error!!!

I have shot several hundred rounds of Wolf through my DPMS and OA AR-15's with both 30 RD clips and 90 round drums. I have experienced few problems. BUT common sense tells use to keep our guns clean, oiled and ready for use at the drop of a hat. If not might-as-well carry a sharp stick!

So, i bought two boxes of wolf although everyone told me not to, and well they were right. I was shooting it through a Bushmaster M17s every round jammed... The gun was a single shot... tried different mags to see if that was it and it wasn't. I cleaned the gun again and tried it and it still jammed. I would not recommend buying this ammo for any semi-auto M4 or M17s. Might be good for a single shot rifle. Like everyone else says, spend more money and buy good ammo, the guns deserve it.

I’ve been shooting Wolf ammo (grey and green jackets) for the past 9 years without any problems. As several folks stated – most of the time jamming issues are due to magazines or the rifle being dirty in the first place. This is good budget ammo, even if the build-up residue is higher than in higher-priced rounds. This is good practice ammo for a gun range. As far as combat and home defense go, don’t be cheap and buy higher-end rounds.

Very dirty, my M4 is cleaned everytime I shoot it spotless and this ammo has been the dirtiest ammo yet, so If you buy this ammo make sure you to clean your gun ATLEAST every 500 rounds or it will start jamming, Just an FYI but like the other guys said "good budget ammo" as long as you have time to take off work and clean your guns! HAHA

I understand why they call it dirty ammo now. The coating rubs right off and gets on your fingers. I imagine it deposits it while you fire it as well. If you are on a budget, then this is the best to get. If not, stick with brass.

To the guy that said his AR jammed everytime. OIL YOUR BOLT CARRIER. I have shot 1000's of these rounds out of my bushmaster without any problems at all unless your gun is dirty their has been no problem with this ammo.

I had to get another mag for the bushmaster. Rounds loaded flawlessly after using new mag. I guess Bushmaster mags don't want to work for this ammo. For being dirty I don't see it. I haven't had any build up. All rounds have fired no duds. Shoot straight.

The Wolf ammo and the Silver Bear are both dirty ammo but with both my Bushmasters M4 I have fired 1000rds of the Wolf and 2000rds of the Silver Bear and have not had any problems. Not 1 miss fire or jam. I compaired the patterns that I was shooting with Winchester ammo and lost just under 1/2" off my pattern @ 150yds and that was after shooting 200rds of Winchester ammo and 700rds of Silver Bear and 200rds of Wolf. I never stopped to clean anything. In one day we shot 2000rds of Wolf and 2000rds of Silver Bear non stop and still NO miss fires or jams. I wish American made ammo was cheaper but since it isn't these are working great for me. hope that helps. John

Some people are confusing this with the green laquered stuff. Apparently Wolf is sporting this, gray non-laquered and the green laquered (classic). I spent over 1,000 rounds at a 2 day AR training. I got some flak about shooting the cheap stuff but my rifle operated flawlessly with this Wolf. At 200 yards I was targeting better than most. At one point, the instructor noticed that this was not the messy laquer ammo and gave it the thumbs up. *As far at the "one shot rifle" guy, sounds like a magazine issue, not an ammo problem.

This is a good product the reason people get a lot of jams is bad mags so having a cheap mag will cause a lot of problems the rounds are really good.

i'v shot 100 rds in my colt AR with no problem. don't no bout a bushmaster

i have put over 600rds through my M4 with out a misfire or jam . it is a little durtyer than other ammo . but if you clean your weapon after every trip to the range i dont see the problem . i put about 500rds before i cleaned my M4 .

I have shot many rounds through both my Ruger Mini 14 and my Bushmaster AR15 and have had no problem. May by a tad dirtier but as long as you clean your gun every so often there fine especially for price. BUY WOLF AMMO!!!

I bough 10 boxes for Bushmaster AR-15. Jammed EVERY SHOT! It turned the gun into single shot rifle. At first, I thought it might be the rifle, so I cleaned the gun and gas tube. It didn't change anything. I didn't read the reviews before i bought it. I just saw the overall rating. Glad most of the buyers had good results but, in my opinion, this is NOT GOOD FOR AR SHOOTERS.

My DPMS has eaten 500 rds. of this stuff w/o a failure of any type. 50 mtr groups of 3/4 inche. Not great but this isn't match ammo either. For the price you CANNOT beat it. It goes bang when you pull the trigger and hits where you aim. It's a little dirty but nothing horrid. This ammo is great for plinking or stock piling. If bad becomes worse.... a 6" group is better than having nothing to group with at all!!!!!

This ammo works just fine . Dont listen to the AR boys their gun just sucks the ammo doesn't . Not one problem . This stuff flies through even with a dirty gun .

I've gone through about 500rnds of Wolf on my Rock River Arms carbine and have not had a single problem or misfire. My Vector Arms V53 (MP5 clone) on the other hand, will not even FIRE these rounds, they end up with a very light primer strike for some weird reason. Creates a dangerous situation. DO NOT USE ON YOUR VECTOR!

i bought 6 boxes of 20 for my bushmaster ar15 and 3 them came out defective thre're not to good ... better spend abit more and get something good

bought 400 rounds for new ar that shot 2 other brands great but wont load a second shot! like owning a single shot ar15. wow how much fun bang recock,bang;recock

Thanks again for the great delivery, very fast shipping and very reliable ammo. Definitly will purchase this ammo at a later time. Thanks again

Bought this ammo to function test the AR's that I build. First 12 rounds worked well, but then the coating used on the cartridge started acting as a glue and bonded with the inside of the chamber so that the rounds would not eject. On some of the casings, the feed lip was torn off and I had to replace 5 extractors on 3 different carbines. I used up the rest of my stock on Ruger Mini 14's with only a few failures, and they worked like a charm on bolt actions (only 1 failure) but I would not recommend using on AR's.

This ammo is okay, it is a bit dirty, not horrible. Accuracy is pretty good, definitely worth the price...

The absolute best for the money.

I bought 1000 rounds of this for my Bushmaster and my friends Mini Ranch. Neither gun had one problem from any magazine. I myself have been using cheap surplus magazines in my AR and did not have one problem with a jam, stovepipe, or feed. I will definitely be buying more of this ammunition to go plinking with. The accuracy was not even that bad. I was consistently hitting orange clay throwing targets on a stand at 100 yards. Any misses that I did have were just because I was goofing around. The cleaning of my AR was not that bad either. After running 600 rounds of the Wolf and 300 rounds of Lake City through the gun I had no problem cleaning the chamber face, the bolt, or the gas tube. As someone who likes to shoot a lot for fun with friends I highly recommend it.

I have used this ammo and the Wolf Classic Military Ammo (I could see no difference except in packaging) both functioned flawlessley in my Mini-14 Ranch Rifle as well as my friend's Mini-14 Law Enforcement Rifle. Not bad on accuracy, probably more accurate than either rifle.

Great ammo, great price, great value!

I have used wolf ammo for the past five years. I have a mini-14 and probably have fired about a thousand rounds. I have never had a misfire or jam yet.Me and my two brothers all have a mini-14 and about every two months, we go back in the pasture and just cut loose. We all use wolf .223 and usually fire 200-300 rounds at a time. None of us have ever had a problem. For the price this is good ammo

I got 1000 rounds of this ammo simply because it was the cheapest on the market, I own a Ruger Mini 14 and an Armalite AR 15. Most of my friends and I all own either one of those or the semiautomatic AK 47, I have no knowledge of hunting with these rounds because my guns are all for the purpose of home defense, therefore I cannot tell you if this round will be great in hunting or very long shots. This round is great for any shot from 5-100 yards, and in every every gun i have shot it in, it has performed satisfactorily. Me and my friends usually practice with our semiautomatic assault rifles at public "free" shooting ranges and the targets are 25 or 100 yards, and we put up targets that are of a life size human from the waist up and shoot at it standing with no scope or rest to aid in accuracy. With that said, all of us can hit a human target in the head or upper chest about 97% of our shots. Essentially this round is perfect for those shooters with only one or two guns and very little money to spend on ammo, and those with a need for home defense, such as inner city young adults, old people with only a pension or social security as income, andothers who have an assault rifle but a small ammo budget. I recommend this to anyone who doesnt have the money to buy the same caliber ammo at 5 times the price.

I bought these ammo to try out since its so cheap. I've heard alot of people say these ammo are not good and they give alot of firearms FTE and stove pipes. I wanted to revie it for myself and I got it. Its a excellent ammo. The recoil on it isnt alot. I compared the ammo with my practice rounds (remington fmj 55grn) the results were nice, grouping is excellent for a off hand shot.

I purchased this product because of the very low price for kicking around in the field after squirrels, priarie dogs and other small pests. I knew it was not reloadable and thought it would be a dirty shooter as well. I was surprised to see how well this round actually worked in my semi-auto and it wasn't that dirty. The only draw back was the fact that it couldn't be reloaded but at this price why reload for varment rounds and plinking? Great value. I see it has caught on as it is not available right now!!!!!!!!

Our group of guys currently 6 of us use the Wolf 223 55 grain hollow points and we love them. Yes the group at one hundred yards is only about as tight as a silver dollar but how much better do you need it. At this time we currently have shot 131 coyotes in SE Minnesota and for our area thats pretty good. We experience very few jams and missfires.Thanks for the quality ammo.

I have run about 400 rounds through my Olympic Arms AR-15. Not a hang up or jam. I can consistently put the rounds into an 8" black target at 100 yards. If I concentrate, I can get the grouping from a 30 round magazine into about 5 inches. For practice, I would rate this product GREAT.

Bought these rounds once they were cheap and had two hangups in my bushmaster. Also caused a lot of carbon build up after only 30 rounds.

The price is right and it doesn't hang up or misfire. The pistol ammo is good but the .223 @ 55 gr HP just won't deliver a group inside 1.5 MOA off a good benchrest. I'll keep it for defense, but won't use it for serious varmint hunting.

With few exceptions, I have used Wolf Ammo in many of my revolvers and pistols without ever having a I use Wolf Ammo in many of my pistols and revolvers for both plinking and target shooting. Also its great for those SK's and Ranch Rifles when using 30 rd. clips. I've never had a hangfire or mis-fire in any firearm in over 10,000 rounds of use. In my Rock River Arms National Match I can shoot 1 MOA at 100 yards using the adjustable peep sight. Wolf Ammo is the best for the lowest price. It, honestly, is in a class all by itself. NRA UR2

i have bought alot of wolf brand ammo--shoots very good in my ar-15 or my ak-47--no hang ups or miss fires-load up on them you never no what you might need them for!!!

I bought some of this and was pretty suspect. For the money-it is pretty good. I don't reload, so steel case didn't matter. Accuracy was good, and I had no jams. Good buy!
