got ammo?

[Obiwan]

Ask some of the guys that have blown primers or burst cases whether cheap ammo is worth it...or shoot the cheap stuff in low light conditions where you really need your night vision.

For the record....Delphi made it pretty clear he thought there was no reason to pay (a little) more for something other than wolf

The rest of us are simply pointing out some of the reasons that cheapest is seldom best

Like I said....I shoot a lot of Wolf...along with a lot of everything else

But I don't fool myself into thinking it is just as good as (insert favorite ammo here)

I shoot a lot of WWBOX 9mm and 45...but I wouldn't use it for carry ammo

I shoot wolf out of my AR all the problems have been fixed. The problems were in two things with my AR. The dorks that made it put an M16 firing pin inside of it, which was slightly larger than the AR-15 one (from what my gunsmith told me) and that helped cause jams as well as the mags were no good. So I fixed those two things, and have been shooting wolf ever since. It hasn’t jammed up at all, and I get really good groupings at 300 yards with it. I get about 1.5-2.5" (my father can get a bit better with the same ammo) with the scope, and I don’t think that’s the ammos fault I think that’s mine, cause I’m not that great of a shot. The ammo has never failed me, and has always been just as accurate as its brass-cased friends. Or at least I’ve never been able to shoot better than the ammo can perform.

I have shot 2000 rnds through the gun and steel casings have not messed with it yet, but even if it does break the extractor it is still cheaper to buy wolf and replace an extractor every once in a while than to buy the expensive stuff, that in my opinion works just the same.

And I would never use wolf for carry ammo either, but its good practice stuff, good enough. There is no reason to pay extra money for "higher quality" ammo when your just shooting paper targets. I doubt I would use Guatemalan 1980's mfgr ammo for carry purposes either though. Than again if we were forced to carry AR's in civilian circumstances things would be pretty screwed up anyways.


(oh and you can still get it from classic arms for a 115$ even though its a march thing, the way he put it. If it's for that price on the site, he'll give it to you, and i bought the ammo for 100$ a while back, i guess the prices whent up, but 15$ is no biggie)

Delphi,

Let me just say this yes I shoot the hell out of wolf through my M16 and it is cheap ammo for a gun that is nothing but a toy.

However if you can't out shoot wolf ammo you have serious problems and probably could not hit the broad side of a barn. Most inconsistent ammo I have ever chronyed so far is wolf.

In all honesty I'm not that great of a shot with my AR, I havnt practiced enough yet. I havnt been in this hobby that long yet, and intend to get better. But at least I'm honest, I havnt yet been able to outshoot wolf. But I do know for practice it's good enough.

what did you do with the 2k+ rounds you mentioned in an earlier post ?

I dunno half of them are just for fun trying to hit stuff and the other half were me actually trying to get good groupings.

Maybee you guys can give me some pointers on how to shoot it well
