As much as 400 fps difference within the SAME box of ammo!
Shades of golden bullet!
( and yes that inconsistency in loads contributes to crappy accuracy.)
I have seen the same with the "T" brand having some large swings in velocity but I have a few same lot cases of Wolf 55gr Copper H/P which has been very consistent running in average of 2840pfs with a S/D of 28 which is not bad for Russian steel cased ammunition.
Accuracy wise the groups with my current batch of Wolf mimics X193 in group size so at least with some lots of Russian steel case they were decently manufactured.
Now I shoot a lot of Wolf during the course of a year and would buy what ever happened to be on sale and available but I have noticed a difference in accuracy and velocity consistency between the different styles of Wolf .223 and for the record I prefer the Wolf 55gr Copper (Not Bi-Metal) H/P's as it is the most consistent from case to case, lot to lot then the other flavors of Wolf in my AR's.
Now once I settle my dispute with Midway over the damaged A/A upper they shipped me I will have to see how my lot of Wolf shoots thur this unit.
We are all inclined to judge ourselves by our ideals; others, by their acts.
