[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Possible bad batch of Wolf

Posted: 3/14/2005 10:48:51 AM EDT

I've shot thousands of rounds of Wolf 223 wiht near zero problems but this batch is giving me some real issues.

Lot# P235-04

I've tried three boxes and have had my extractor peel the rim off the casing on 2 rounds and one round blow the primer completely out. I finished the day with 200 rounds of Winchester with zero issues. I’m emailing Wolf now and informing them. Just thought I send out a heads up.

Just got off the phone with Wolf. They are sending me a UPS lable to mail the remaining ammo back and they will replace the ammo. I could have recieved a refund but I'll give them one more change because of their good customer assistance.

I'm thinking of a particular domestic shotshell manufacturer that could take a lesson from these guys.

That is very awsome of you to give them another chance.
Let us know what happens.

Me too, I have a few thousand rounds of Wolf, glad to hear they are stepping up the plate.

I have about 200 rounds left of lot # FP235-04

The first 200 or so went bang 100%.

I found out that I have a second brick of 500 rounds of that same lot. At the end of this weekends campout / Coyote hunt /shoot I'm going to shoot a couple of boxes of this brick to see if it has the same issues.

being that it's practice ammo, i can deal with 1 or 2 problems per 1000. I just started using 9mm wolf in my handguns and love it. It's more accurate and smokes less than my last case of UMC.
