Is it safe to shoot Wolf ammo through my DPMS SS barrel w/ 1/8 twist?  Will the steel cases screw up the chamber?  Anyone have any problems with this ammo?  I'm going to Burro Canyon on Sunday on my way back from Big Bear and need to know before I leave tonight since I wont be around a PC.  Thanks, Sydwaiz in Kali.

Buy some Federal American Eagle and forget the Wolf.

Safe?  Yes.  Reliable?  Unknown, but there's a good possibility that your afternoon will be ruined by a case being stuck in your chamber.  I would avoid all steel-cased .223 ammo.

Troy, I've been shooting 'no-name' Russian made steel case ammo through my Eagle-Arms without a hitch.(over 2000 rounds and counting)  I do know what you mean about the Wolf getting stuck though. A friend had it happen about a year ago but I thought maybe it has been improved since then.
