Wolf Gold used to be Prvi Partisan production. ("PPU" or "nny" headstamp) Not sure if it still is. I like Prvi Partisan.

I've had good luck with PPU (Prvi) 5.56 for several years. It is my understanding that the Wolf Gold is now coming out of a US mil contract plant in Taiwan. Same plant that makes .mil contract issue ammo with TAA code on the ammo cans. Just what I have heard.Originally Posted by spqrzilla

Question for you all. With prices falling do you all shoot more steel or brass?
I've been shooting a lot of brass and steel lately........ And don't care about barrel or bcg wear bc for every 4-5k rounds I'll buy a new BCG and Barrel... Or just keep shooting the shit out of my gun.
I use to believe the hype and never shoot steel, then I shoot the two intermixed for a couple years and then went to only brass bc I was reloading a lot. Now a days I don't reload much and I like walking off my range without picking up cases.
If it was somewhere i was unable to pick up spent cases i'd shoot the wolf or tula.. otherwise it's brass. Nothing wrong with the steel case ammo. One can reload the wolf as it's boxer primed, the tula still berdan.

Yes. Didn't notice the 40mm can until it arrived. Would prefer the 50 call can but not a big deal.

They still offer the 50 cal can option, but it wasn't free shipping.
I prefer the 50 as well, but "free" is "free". You still did ok. You can always sell off the 40mm can, and make somebody happy. Consider it "free shipping" and slightly cheaper ammo.

Sent about 500 rounds of wolf gold down range on Friday. Also some freedom munitions and pmc.
The wolf was cleaner, less smoke, and all went bang. Noticed a huge difference between wolf and freedom. Enough that I'm done buying freedom unless it's the only thing available in a reasonable price range. Freedom looked like a black powder rifle compared to the wolf gold. Also a very noticeable difference in the amount of crap in the action shooting w a supressor. Wolf had a fraction of what the freedom leaves.
Pmc was......pmc. More smoke and filth than the wolf gold. I'm buying more of this stuff.
I was about to pick up 1000rds Tula .223 https://www.cheaperthandirt.com/prod...14950011654.do
Thoughts?
If it runs OK in your rifle(s) and you want it, go for it. If you're not sure if it runs, make sure first, IMO.

What he said. Make sure your rifles run good with it before buying in bulk. Early on I purchased several thousand rounds of that exact same ammo only to discover that one of my rifles does not function with it. Now, before I hear that a rifle should run with any and all ammo, my rifle was gone over by a few experts on here and my rifles are fine, just don't like the Tula steel cased mentioned above. Has to do with tighter chamber and I am not willing to have the chamber reamed in order to run steel.
So in short, try before you commit to a large quantity. I believe you can pick up a few boxes at Walmart and try it out.
