 Ammo Not So Good ... Customer Service AWESOME, 05/12/2008 |
| Reviewer: WCR |
| I bought 80 rounds for my brand new M&P15. They jammed and misfead like crazy. I only shot 20 of the 80 rounds. I stuffed the other 60 rounds in my range bag and basically forgot about them. I ran about 200 rounds of Remington through the gun after that with out any jams or misfeeds. I called Wolf today and I must say THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS GREAT!!! Total call time = 2 minutes 49 seconds and I was offered replacement ammo or refund. They even admitted they were aware that some of their ammo had a problem. |
 CHEAP BUT NOT BAD! I can afford to shot my AR NOW!, 05/12/2008 |
| Reviewer: The Gun Collector... |
| Wolf is not the BEST but for sure its not the WORST either! For targets why not its cheap and while you can still find it BUY IT! |
| it works, 05/10/2008 |
| Reviewer: itwasnotme |
| Ive bought this ammo before for my ar-15 and did not have one problem. every round was fired. will buy in the future |
| Not bad for cheap, 04/21/2008 |
| Reviewer: bigredjeep |
| First off, this is not precision ammo so stop whining. This is cheap lead to run through with no real expected results. This stuff shoots smoothly through my olympic m4, never had a jam no miss fires. And the guy who dumped 450 rounds in a bon fire is a liar or an idiot, I would have bought them! This ammo has been reliably accurate and consistently performs. Bushmasters are picky about their ammo so buy accordingly. Don't dumb down this stuff just b/c your rifle doesn't have tolerances to shoot cheap ammo. |
 AMMO MAKES AN AR A BOLT-ACTION!, 04/17/2008 |
| Reviewer: PISSED OFF GUY!!! |
| I got about 500 rounds of this shit and every other round stuck in the chamber of my Bushmaster A3 target model, I will never buy again, I shot about 50 rounds, and threw the rest ina bon-fire........ some stuck in the chamber so bad that I had to get a hammer to smack the charging handle back....... never ever had a malfunction with brass ammo, M193, M855 and 45 Grain REM UMC HPs all work fine, its NOT THE RIFLE!!! |
| Plenty Good For Me, 04/10/2008 |
| Reviewer: Bushmaster AR15 Club |
| I have shot many rounds of Wolf Ammo through both my Ruger Mini 14 and my Bushmaster AR 15. I have had no problems with it, just it is a tad bit dirtier, but as long as you clean your gun every so often, you should be fine. For the price, i'll take it and it shoots well, I have had no jams. Buy Wolf Ammo |
| Check with your local range, 03/19/2008 |
| Reviewer: ChrisG |
| Check with your local ranges before using this ammo at their facilities. Wolf ammo, justly or not, has issues reported with thier ammunition. These include poor feeding and detonations. Some ranges are no longer allowing steel cased Wolf ammo to be used. |
| do not buy, 03/16/2008 |
| Reviewer: hob |
| crap.crap.crap. steel cased ammo is no good for your ar-15, kel-tec or m -16. good for about 1000 rounds then it will jam. had to replace extractor for my kel-tec. i guess if u got alot of money to repair your gun then this ammo is for you. |
| Wolf Military Classic .223, 02/26/2008 |
| Reviewer: Lt. Earp |
| I heard good things and bad things about Wolf ammo. I just bought a brand new Bushmaster A2 Target 20" barrel 1/9. I had been firing Rem .223's through it just fine.
I had bought some of the wolf military classic ammo because it was cheaper and I hadn't heard anything bad about the classic ammo. I loaded a mag with them. Shot once, jammed. Tried again. It shot and ejected the shell. But wouldn't load another live shell. I did this 3 or 4 times with this mag. Same thing would happen. Switiched mags and tried again. Same thing again 3 or 4 times. Junk ammo. I'll never buy anymore. So far I'm sticking Winchesters and Remington .223's |
 Decent practice ammo, 02/22/2008 |
| Reviewer: Mike |
| I've shot thousands of rounds of Wolf in a variety of calibers and have no problems of any kind. Yes, they are a little dirtier than other rounds but other than more cleaning time, I have no complaints. I see it's either a love or hate thing with AR owners and Wolf. I can only speak from personal experience in that it functions well in all three of my AR-15's (2 Bushmasters and a Colt) and I haven't had to replace any extractors/ejectors yet. It's not match ammo and I don't expect dime sized groups at 100 yards with it. For a cop like myself on a budget who generally has to supply my own practice ammo, I can shoot twice as much for the same price. Would I want it for serious personal use? Not unless there was nothing else available. It all comes down to the individual. If it works for you and you're comfortable and proficient with it, then it must be right. |
| Plinkers Only, 02/17/2008 |
| Reviewer: Frank Rizzo |
| Can't beat it for the price. The darker shell casings will cause the machinery of any gun to become dirty especially versus an all brass case.
For practice rounds these can't be beat (if you don't mind cleaning your gun). |
| watch it, 02/08/2008 |
| Reviewer: Randy |
| I left some boxes of 223 wolf under my pickup seat when I went to use them the cases were rusty and bullet had a scale on them. Watch where you store the wolf ammo. Have had no problems with other ammo. Wolf Hollow points don't feed well in my MP-15. FMJ seem to work better. Yes it's cheaper to shoot but I'll stick with brass loads, less problems. |
| Great Product, 01/29/2008 |
| Reviewer: JCB |
| I have fired around 5000 rds of Wolf 55 FMJ. It has gone through a Ruger GB, Bushmaster M17(over 2000rds), Arsenal AK, and A Sig 556. THere has not been one failure to feed, no stuck cases, and every single round has fired like it should. Accuracy is good enough for what I need. That being range, and home defense. A good part of the world uses steel cased ammo and has been doing so for quite awhile. This ammo works, and its by far the best deal. |
| Would Not Feed, 01/27/2008 |
| Reviewer: Jonathan |
| I purchased about 400 round of this ammo recently for my Bushmaster AR-15. It would not feed at all and would occasionally become so stuck I had to pry it out by hand. Will not buy again. |
 okay ammo, 01/21/2008 |
| Reviewer: collin |
| this ammo is good for bolt or single action guns but not for semi's. the steel case does not allow it to slide out of the mag properly. fairly cleean ammo but you get what you pay for. |
| Try testing..., 01/19/2008 |
| Reviewer: 0331Cates |
| After I bought my AR I hit up the range... and took 40 rounds of EACH of the commonly available ammo in my area. Three worked great - one didn't. This brand of Wolf worked juuuust great. I haven't noticed an excessive dirtying of my weapon... or wear on the extractor, etc. The Remington UMC I got double fed and then stovepiped when it fired everytime. So I go with the Wolf or the Winchester white box when I shoot. THATS WHAT WORKS WITH MY WEAPON, which is probably different from yours. So please guys... anyone looking at the reviews of this ammunition probably has never used it, so I encourage people to test a few different ones out and see what works best for their rifle... |
| Decent but gums up action., 01/16/2008 |
| Reviewer: Lonathan |
| I used this stuff on a few different weapons and a bunch of different calibers and for this particular application (Bushmaster M4) Its not a good choice. The first thing I noticed was inconsistancy. It is in no way a tactical or target round. I'd only use it for range plinking or just going BANG. If you try to zero your rifle with this stuff, you'll be chasing groups on your target ALL DAY LONG!!! My main gripe is that there is a red laquer on the primer and it gummed up my action a bit (on my .45 H&K USP also, but after 300rds) |
| Is what it is , 12/20/2007 |
| Reviewer: Sonny |
| This is Russian ammo surplus not Lake City XM855 or Hornandy TAP ect. Having said that I've fired thousands of rounds through my Bushmaster carbine.I've never had a single malfunction. 98% of the ammo used has been Wolf 55gr,hp / fmj Alternating in the mag.I've gotten good results its not sniper grade. But more than acceptable for defence. and ive fired hundreds of rounds without stopping or cleaning as a test of reliability of weapon and ammo. 0 failures |
| A follow up, 12/02/2007 |
| Reviewer: Matt |
| A side not to my previous review. Wolf does make a 62 grain ammo for the .223 I have not seen it in store's or had the oppertunity to use it. It would be interesting to see if it performs better or worse in AR's then the 55 grain rounds |
| Not the right stuff, 12/02/2007 |
| Reviewer: Matt |
| First let me say this. Wolf is a cheap made ammo. Next let me say that it works great for ak's and sks's. Both of these weapons are very loose and plenty of clearance. Cheap ammo won't be such a big deal for these weapons. They are tough. But an AR of an brand is a lot tighter. There isn't as much allowance in these weapons designs. They will need a higher grade ammo. While I'm not saying Wolf ammo just won't work, I am saying I believe a higher grade ammo will extend weapon life and reliability. Also no one has mentioned the fact that Wolf .223 ammo is a 55 grain bullet. The modern M16/AR15 is designed for a 62 grain bullet. While this isn't a HUGE difference it's going to cause problems every now and then. I'm not saying I'm absolutely right, but it is something to think about. |
| Good for AK's, 11/06/2007 |
| Reviewer: secforce8152 |
| Running this ammo through a Bushmaster or any other $1000+ rifle is like putting unleaded in a lambergini. The steel cases are hard on your chamber and extractor, and the rounds burn dirty and will foul your rifles gas system much more quickly than other brands. This ammo is great for AK's but personally i wouldnt use it in a AR. |
| Not Happy, 10/06/2007 |
| Reviewer: Gunshinestate |
| Bought a brand new Bushmaster AR-15 (XM-15 E2S carbine) and have put several hundred rounds of Remington through it blissfully without incident. I bought a couple hundred rounds of this Wolf ammo for my second trip to the range. Had TWO misfires in 60 rounds. In both cases the weapon clicked but didn't go bang. Didn't notice obvious flaws in the first misfired round, but the second had a shattered primer after inspecting. Now, of course, I am left with that looming question of whether my weapon has a reliability issue or if it's purely the Wolf ammo. Also, the guy two lanes over had a RRA which he said never had any issues with Wolf and had a failure to eject 14 breaths later. I will no longer be purchasing this ammo for my Bushy, especially considering that the Remington is only a dollar more per box at my local Wallyworld, and they INVENTED this caliber.
*Oh, and yes when I bought the Wolf ammo at my favorite, and very honest, gun shop the manager informed me that this was "the NEW .223 Wolf ammo where they fixed the primer problem" which I wasn't even aware of in the first place.
Good luck, and if your firearm doesn't have any problems firing this and you are saving money like other reviewers then you'd be a fool to stop using Wolf. |
| Good Ammo; Know your Application, 09/02/2007 |
| Reviewer: Colin |
| I have read all the reviews up to this point, and feel bad for the guys using AR15/M16 firearms, because they are NOT true .223 Remington rifles. Read this months' "American Rifleman" from NRA, on page 38 for all the good information about the difference between the rifles chambered for the military 5.56 x 45mm ball round, and the civilian .223 Remington rounds. They are NOT the same, though they measure externally the same and will cycle manually the same; the difference ends there. I have fired over 100 rounds of .223 Remington Wolf rounds and Bear rounds, and have been able to acquire less than a one inch grouping while zeroing a scope. The entire group walked right to center. But, I am using a Kel-Tec rifle (American Made) chambered for .223 Remington, NOT 5.56 x 45mm rounds, and firing .223 Remington ammo. This makes for a huge difference as the miltitary round builds more pressure and has a larger chamber for their round ahead of the bullet, causing accuracy and cycling issues for firearms using .223 Remington in place of the 5.56mm rounds (see the article). Bottom line - use the correct ammo, and as one reviewer stated, TRULY learn your firearm, and it will perform as expected. I have used this ammo flawlessly, with the only feed jams coming from worn magazine springs, not ammo. New magazines were jam free. Keep in mind that SAAMI (Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers Institute) considers 5.56 x 45mm military rounds , "In firearms chambered for .223 Remington, do not use the 5.56x45 mm Military cartridges", and include this combination in their book, "SAAMI Technical Correspondent Handbook" Unsafe Arms and Ammunition Combinations section. Page 42 of the American Rifleman article goes on to detail why using .223 Remington is not a good idea either, in rifles chambered for 5.56x45mm and why. From appearances it is like using .38 Special rounds in a .357 Magnum; okay for target shooting, but for actual hunting or protection, use the ammunition the firearm is designed for using. One other note: ALL gas operated rifles are subject to jamming problems if not properly cleaned and maintained. Miticulous care leads to professional performance; careless use will lead to dissatisfaction and malfunctions, leading to possibly dangerous conditions.

| Well for the rest of us..., 08/31/2007 |
| Reviewer: JDan |
| No ones confusing Wolf with Lake City or Winchester, but being that its on average at least 150 dollars cheaper for 1000 rounds it definetly makes up the difference. I've put thousands of rounds of it through my Mini-14 and my Bushy, never had any problems. While I'm not really sure if it wears down your extractor and chamber as the excentrics are telling me (the few) it performs well for the price so i'll stick too it. And as of this posting I have yet been forced to buy a new barrel due to Wolf's rumored destructive capabilities... |
| just the facts, 08/27/2007 |
| Reviewer: Avid Shooter |
| Let me put it simply, Wolf ammo is crap if you buy it, it shows that you haven't studied up on firearms or ammunition and that you don't care about your weapon. I am in the Army and own multiple firearms I refuse to fire wolf ammo in any of my weapons, wolf ammo will jam in your chamber, the powder is not consistent so you will never get a tight group and it will wear out your extractor and chamber and an extractor may only cost thirty bucks but to get a new barrel costs several hundred dollars. Plus I am not in the market to be buying a new part for my rifle every few thousand rounds. Lake City ammunition is made in AMERICA and is actually one of the more accurate rounds on the market but you have to fire it from a rifle with a 1/7 or 1/9 barrel twist to get the full effectiveness of the round.Wolf ammo is made in Russia it is not known for being a quality product, but it is known for being a cheap product. One last thing British surplus ammunition does not fire well from AR series rifles because the British use a bullpup conversion so it requires less gas pressure to throw the bolt back. If you want to use it to plink make sure you lube your weapon very well before firing or you will have multiple jams. In essence pay a little extra and get better ammo and save yourself a whole lot of heartache down the road and if your going to leave comments make sure you know what your talking about |

| Good Plinker!, 08/14/2007 |
| Reviewer: Jeffrey |
| I have been shooting AR's for decades now, and the only time I had a misfeed with ANY ammo was my fault for not cleaning my rifles properly. Dont complain about accuracy if you shoot the cheapest ammo you can buy thru a 16" carbine. The M16/AR15 was designed to put a lot of lead downrange quickly and cheaply. If you want MOA accuracy over 100 meters then buy an M14. Also, if you are having problems with your weapon or ammo; you might want to ask yourself-"Have I ever been trained for this weapon? Do I really know what I'm doing? Did I clean it correctly?" I cant count the times I've seen someone at the range blaming their weapon or ammo when its plain to see they have no idea what they are talking about. |

| Great Ammo !, 06/28/2007 |
| Reviewer: Fernando |
| Guys,this is a great ammo !.I haven't put on my rifles that many as 2000 (as some of the folks said in here) but yes 500,and the rifle did worked perfect.I don't know what happened to those 2 guys ("Jon" and "JT4NRA...probably both are the same person) who wrote "terrible things" about Wolf's ammo;but one have to keep in mind that the AR rifles are picky too.My 16" Rock River gave me the first 3 times i fired it all kind of jammins (almost i get rid of it) and with all kind of ammo,but i worked a little bit on it and now fires anything.I have to "confest" also i haven't have had this problems with my AK's.From the very beginning they fire like a rifle should......and with Wolf ammo.So,don't blame Wolf ammo if you rifle sucks for a while.......Buy this ammo !!! |
| Worth it., 06/27/2007 |
| Reviewer: Mr. D. |
| Well, I have shot multiple thousands(10k+) of Wolf brand ammo, both the older green lacquer and newer grey polymer coat. The older stuff does have "function issues" in some guns. The newer grey ammo is actually quite good ammo despite the the FALSE claims by "Jon" that "it rips apart your guns" or so some say on barfcom(ar15.com). I would hazzard a guess that those guns that were supposedly ripped apart, would have been so by any ammo(operator error?). I agree with the other reviewer here that IF your weapon does NOT shoot Wolf reliably... you need a different weapon, as you should have a weapon that functions with all the ammo out there and the reason for that is, during SHTF or other "situations" .... you may not get to choose what ammo is available for your weapon. Wolf brand .223rem is good stuff, and the least expensive right now for training and plinking. The reason most ranges do not allow it is primarily because of the mild steel case, they can't police up the "brass" and sell it without having to sort it out. Feel confident in purchasing Wolf brand .223rem ammo from CTD... don't let ingorance or fear mongers or LC ammo elitest sway your decision away from Wolf, it's good stuff... and your target won't know the difference. :-) |

| Reviewer: mesquite |
| very decent ammo. fed well. gun was not overly dirty like so many people have posted before nor was there extra wear on my gun from the steal casing. shot 300 rounds through my bushmaster AR15 and not one single problem. Accuracy was good. Only thing that i thought was different was there was a "chemical" type smell emitted from my rifle after i got through shooting. Didnt notice any harm to the rifle so i'll definitely buy again.
it fed, went boom and hit where i aimed what else more are you looking for!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Extreme Spread Factor, 05/28/2007 |
| Reviewer: Handloader |
| My experience with the Wolf .223, 55 Grain FMJ is as follows:
I cannot falt the ammo and its' acceptability for one, the cost is low, but as for longer range accuracy it has severe limitation.
I decided to chronograph some of the Wolf ammo as described above, and found out the reason for its inconsistency. For a five round string, it's average velocity ran 2,786.51 feet per second. The cartridge as load by Wolf had an Extreme Spread of 187.58 feet per second, and a Standard deviation of 79.53 feet per second.
I ran a five shot string with my begining hand loads, and found that they had an average velocity of 2,969.15 feet per second (From my AR-15 with a 16" barrel), using a 55 grain Sierra JHP, BT. The string had an extreme spread of only 7.25 feet per second, and a Standard Deviation of 3.16 feet per second. I found this interesting! Ron Mudie, La Grande, Oregon |

| I have put over 2,000 rounds of fmj and hollow point through my mini 14 stainless and never had a problem except feeding with cheap aftermarket clips and even the good stuff done this buy a rugger 20 round clip from here or else where and then no more feeding problems the after market mags are junk. this amo is good not as acrute as some and dirter tham a lot but clean your guns like you are sopposed too and this will not be a problem either have a new bushmaster and going to try these with it also, used 7.62X39 in an AK and Sks also over 2,000 rounds in the wolf amo same thing no problems. |
| Full me once..., 05/04/2007 |
| Reviewer: JT4NRA |
| I purchased a 1000 rounds of Wolf ammo for my brand new DPMS Panther. First time to the range I had nothing but jam after jam. I also had Remington ammo that fired excellently. No problems. As someone else said, you get what you pay for. And I will not be buying anymore Wolf ammo. |
| Good for the money, 05/03/2007 |
| Reviewer: Mitchell |
| If your AR can't take this ammo you have a bad rifle. The only downside to wolf when compared to lake city ammo is the steel casing will wear the extractor down slightly faster. An extractor costs $30 (you can put in yourself if you know how to dissassemble the bolt carrier group) and you will save over a thousand dollars if you shoot 10,000 rounds of wolf instead of Lake City. Wolf is slightly less accurate but Lake City isn't very accurate either. All that brittish surplus is under powered where as wolf is loaded to the correct muzzle velocity specification to insure reliable feeding in the AR platform. |
| I Love the Stuff..., 02/23/2007 |
| Reviewer: Crashkid |
| What's not to like? Wolf ammo costs less than others, shoots almost as straight, and allows me some "fun" time that I might otherwise forego.
I find Wolf good for me because: 1) It's very affordable. 2) It's reliable; I have shot several thousand rounds of Wolf 223 through two different semi-auto rifles (one new and one old) with no malfunctions. 3) It's fairly clean, in my experience. I had some military green-tip stuff (Lake City, maybe? I don't remember.) two years ago that was absolutely nasty; I'll take Wolf over that green-tip any day.
Wolf won't work well for you if: 1) You want to reload the brass, because they're steel cases. 2) You need absolute shot-to-shot repeatability. Be reasonable; you're spending less than $4 a box. Don't expect match-grade results. 3) You have an issue with putting anything other than brass in your chamber.
Wolf is what it is. It's a cheap, reliable, and fairly accurate product. If you need a higher standard of accuracy, then you should probably be spending a few more dollars! |
| better that any could hope to be!, 02/21/2007 |
| Reviewer: Scott |
| I have read some pretty lousy reviews of Wolf .223 ammo. I really can't believe what I'm seeing. Maybe I've just been fortunate enough to have never had one bogus round or hang-up. I have zeroed with this round for my AR-15 and Ruger Bolt, shot a couple thousand in the AR and several hundred in the Ruger, gone back to check zero and low and behold, It was ZERO, both the rifles.. With the performance I've seen with Wolf, I'll never buy another brand, no way, no how. And to think, I'm not even a paid spokesman! |

| Reviewer: joe |
| Ive shot about 1300 rds through my AR 15 and it has an old M16 20" barrel (colt military police chrome bore)and it feeds through without a problem, even through my 90 rd snaildrum. It's not very accurate tho, good for fun shooting, but not for competitive shooting.don't try zeroing in your scope with it, i played around for about 2 hrs before i realized it was the shells and not a loose scope mount. VERY DIRTY but cheap. you should clean your rifle everytime you shoot anyway. |

| As an avid spearfisherman, I regularly end up carrying multiple dead and bleeding fish on my person while diving. Given that some of the fish struggle before they die, I am a bubble blowing dinner bell for sharks. I seldom have to use more than a swift poke and aggressive posture to back them down, but sometimes it takes alittle more persuasion. Since I have switched to Wolf Brand ammo in my Powerheads I have had zero duds due to water intrusion compared to an average of 1 out of 4 before. I love the piece of mind I have knowing the my last resort is going to work if I need it for self defense or that monster Amberjack that might otherwise have broken my gear or shaken my spearshaft and slowly died while swimming away....... without getting a tour of my fishbox and grill! Thanks for a great product and a great price that can handle repeated dives to 150' in salt water and still perform when it counts. |
| Not bad for Mini-14's/AR-15's, 12/15/2006 |
| Reviewer: Ross - Modesto, CA |
| I have shot a lot of Wolf in a Mini-14 on the range and in the field for Jack Rabbits, both HP and FMJ rounds. Groups on the bench are 6-8" @100 yards in the Mini-14. In my Remington 700 varmint I get 2"-3" at 100 yards. In my son's Tika .223 Varmint it locked up the bolt due to a blown primer! The ammo feeds well in our AR-15's, but the groups are 4"-6" @100 yards.
Inexpensive ammo shooting Jack Rabbits on the run in the open, but for precision shooting like squirrels at 200 yds, don't bother you wont get shot to shot consistency needed for small targets.

| Reviewer: Dafar |
| I have been shooting the Wolf Ammo in My Ar-15's Plural x3 almost exclusively for the last 5 years . While it is not the most accurate ammo in the world niether is USGI ball.This is not match ammo However,I have a Bushy 20 inch freefloater that puts 55grn Wolf into 1.2 inch groups, my 14.5((with permanantly attached 2.5 inch factory flash hider)) lighwieght does about 3.5 inch groups at 1 hundred yards and thats with an Aimpoint.
I have never had a safety problem or had anyone think me a joke because I shoot Wolf ammo. I shoot it because I could afford it. Very Very few Misfires, Actually a better record than some of remington's product line. There was alot of hub bub about Wolf and the laquer cases. Hello the problem was not the cases it was the laquer that sealed the bullets. this has since been rectified by the factory. Another clue,,, clean your gun and chamber once in a while. I purposely do not clean one of my rifles to see how long it can run before starting to malfunction. When it happens it is usually a lube issue. Wolf ammo does tend to be a little on the dirtier side but hey when you get it at half the cost of other stuff you deal with it.
DOnt let old shooter myths and grudges turn you away from a product that may work well for you.
Oh I dont work for wolf or any other company in any way shape or form. |

| I have shot 400 of these so far and only one round misfired. I shoot a Mini 14 I bought new in 05 at my local walmart.

I'm a fifty yard shooter so at that range I have no problem putting holes at a black 8 inch shoot n'c target. Price was the reason I chose this ammo. The .223 ammo at my local Academy had reached six dollars a box! Happy shooting to all. |

| Take a box of this ammo to your local range, and just see if they even let you shoot it there. This ammo is known to be cheap, disruptive, and annoying to ranges accross the globe. This ammo rips your rifle apart. If you dont want to be the joke of your local shooters ring...then dont purchase this ammo. Just look at the reviews on ar15.com and some of the others. |

| I have about 2000 rounds of Wolf in .223 and 7.62 as well as .308, and all of it has functioned very reliably in all my rifles. I currently shoot and AR-15, a WASR-10 AK, and a CETME. All of these rifles eat these cartridges without a problem. I was afraid that I would see more chamber wear due to the metal casings but I have as yet not noticed any problems. No hang ups or misfires to report. |

| i have shot tons of this stuff through my mini14 and have very few hangups. I have had a few fail to feed, but could have been a mag problem also. For the hell of it i tried to run some in my ar15 and that was a no go. It would not feed the next round. This was the laquer coated stuff and seems maybe the friction had something to do with it. But overall, if it will feed - it will go bang. I shoot this stuff alot, and since its relatively cheap, i keep some stored away. |
