    If the choice is only between those two buy the PMC.

    You can factor about 8-10 cents per round out of the PMC due to the value of the brass if you were to sell it to a reloader.

    That makes the PMC the better value eh?

    WOW......Wolf steel cased garbage for $7.99 a box.......I just bought 30 boxes of Federal XM193F Lake City 2008 production for $6.99 a box.

    The XM193 was on sale at a local department store for $6.99.......but it was supposed to be a four box limit per customer. The gal at the checkout said I could have as many as I wanted, so I went back to the sporting goods dept. and got 26 more boxes!!

    Sorry for highjacking your thread..........in regards to your situation......I would definitely get the PMC. I do not care for Wolf.

    You may want to buy a case of wolf online. That should run you about $5/box

    For just plinking Wolf is fine.

    To all those who think wolf will ruin your bbl/chamber. Well, in 2000 rounds I've saved enough to buy a brand new bbl.

    Where are you getting the ammo from? I really want to start reloading. But even reloading is expensive to get started..

    Sportsmansguide.com is a great place to get ammo. Some of the best in the Hornady TAP. If you have a 5.56 chamber, get the Federal m193 ball with the Lakecity brass for plinking or all around decent but cheap ammo.
    Wolf is crap. Avoid it like the plague.

    Cool I'm glad I didn't buy the wolf. I bought a few boxes of the PMC 55gr to see if I like it, and to see how dirty it. I've been seeing a lot of people using the federal m193 ammo.

    I am seeing Wolf for $17.99 a box. If you know of places that have it for $5 a box, by all means let us know.
