| Just got a new G19(my first glock). How do you guys feel about using wolf in your glock? It'll just be used for practice/plinking. What kind of accuracy do you get out of it. |
Same here, I don't use too much Wolf handgun ammo since it's not much cheaper than brass cased 9mm but all I shoot through my two Colt AR's is Wolf .223 and I've never had an issue. The steel case won't hurt a thing! |

Only problem EVER with wolf was letting it sit in a hot chamber then trying to eject the round, (armalite180b) This was the older lacquer coated stuff, not the polymer coated, can't speak on that. And i DID have to replace the extractor on my glock19, but the money saved was way more that the extractor cost. Bottom line, if i can shoot more and still put closthe on my child, then i'll do it. There are too many wolf bad!!!!! elitists out there who thumb their nose at it because they have the luxury of expendable income. don't believe the hype til you've tried it for yourself. |
I just don't believe this was caused by the Wolf unless you were dropping a round in the chamber and dropping the slide. There is no reason for the steel case to wear the ejector in any pistol. Not saying you didn't have an extracter issue but I don't think it was wolf related. |
could be right. The pistol was new, (less than 500 rds) and the extractor failed at less than 2k, about 90% wolf, and i've NEVER had a glock extractor go bad, and i've been shooting them since 1990. I took and educated guess at this as it was just worn down in the area where the case contacts it. Now i've seen this type of wear before, but it took like 15000 rds of brass cased range ammo..... |
sorry, that was 15k,,,,,It was a PD issued gun, so i could be wrong, but 15,000 was what we came up with over 10 yrs. |
