i wish i could FIND steel cased stuff locally. (Can't buy ammo online where i live). I'd gladly put up with a few jams in order to save $30 a case.

A while back during the great primer shortage I bought some Wolf primers because that's all I could find. Right away I started getting FTF's with my tuned competition CZ. A fellow competitor suggested I go with a stiffer mainspring. When I did the problem was solved. A shooting buddy of mine bought a case of Wolf .45 for use in his G30. You could have tracked his progress at a match with the trail of ejected live rounds he left in his wake. In my experience the Wolf primers are harder.
I appreciate your input.
I recently experienced a similar FTF with Tula .45 ammo in my Kimber (and RIA compact which has no FP safety which takes that possibility out of the equation). Both had primer strikes but didn't go bang. I reloaded them and the went bang on the second go round. I have had no problems with other ammo.
I had a terrible experience with Tula in a brand new AR. Never again. I did buy some 9mm and am wondering how it will fare.
