It's terrible ammo, you need to send all of it to me ASAP. I fact, buy all of it you see and send it to me. I want to prevent anyone from possessing such poor ammo.
Up until a year or so ago I refused to fire anything except brass Winchester 5.56 M193 which you could get @ Wally World for under $4.00 a box. After that webt through the roof I tried a variety of other "plinking" ammo; American Eagle, Remington UMC and other stuff. None of it was moaded to NATO pressures and it wasn't all that cheap. Of course I have a few hundred rounds of assorted surplus rounds I try to hold back.
All of this resulted in me being forced to fire alot of steel case Wolf at various classes since it was all the department could afford. To my surprise I loved the stuff. It was very accurate, at my last instructor development class I had 3 one hole hroups during the initial zero exercise. After over 2K rounds I noticed that my extractor claw has about a 1/64" wear. Totally crushed the previously popular sotry of how steel casings ruin extractors.
Still the over riding desirability was price; now that's slipping away too. After it's $10.00 / 20rds it won't hold the market share it does now. I think the recent appearance of brass casings is a reaction to justifying the pending price increase.
Most brewing fights consist of one man who is scared and another man who is glad of it.
