Hey everyone. So far with my rifle and hangun ive only used pmc m855, but im finding the price hard to keep up with how much i shoot.
Ive been thinking about getting wolf which is $100 cheaper per 1k than pmc m855, but how good is it? Ive only used one mag of wolf a friend wanted to dump it seems to function fine but 30 rnds isnt rly an accurate measure, so what do yall think? Also how do berettas like wolf 9mm |

It's dirty, not totally consistent but cheap.
That pretty much sums it up. 
It's also great if you wanna run lots of ammo related malfunction clearance drills. 
The 9mm stuff is fine, but I have had as many as 3 squib loads per 1,000, so I would not recommend it for use in subguns. |
That doesnt sound to bad, im just having issues keeping up with the cost of brass ammo especially when the price increase hits
And the 9mm is going in a px4. But looking at cost i can get 720 pmc m855 250 pmc gold 9mm = $300 Or 1000 wolf Wpa military 500 wpa 9mm = $300 So theres a big price diff there |

The new 'WPA' Wolf is now produced at the same plant as the 'Bear' brand ammo, and as such is a lot more consistent and hotter than the Wolf of old. I'd have no hesitation in picking some up if I were you. Im glad to see such support illget alot more bang for my buck  with wolf guess ill go that route and see how my spikes M4LE likes it

i run it through my ak with no problem. not a fan in my ars though. especially painted cases. seen too many shells jam in chambers. Well im getting the new 2011 WPA ammo and i saw on their site they have a 100% satisfaction gurantee so im gonna give em a shot Edit placed my order with aim surplus 50 boxes of WPA military classic .223 55gr 10 boxes WPA 9mm 115gr Cant wait |

I had not experienced, or seen, any problems with the 9mm. I had some lots of Ulyanavosk (?sp) that was inconsistent, velocity wise. Could you tell me the lot #, and whether it was the 115 or 124? Is it the newer WPA stuff? I've run something like 8k or 115 Wolf, just 1k of the 124s, but have had zero problems. The FS Uzi hits the primers pretty hard. What gun were you using? Open bolt? Thanks, Sam |

I went and shot the stuff for accuracy last weekend. 10 round group @ 100 yards was 3" (2" if you don't count the one flyer). I'll post a pic of the target when I get home. I wanna see that 1st group (bullet hole on the right is from an AK  )
2nd group 
Shot from this gun 
This was black box 62gr FMJ, off a bench using the bipod; I suspect that smaller groups would be possible using a rest. |
