Have any of you guys or dolls ever tried this stuff?? I'm wanting some blasting ammo for my UZI & I want something relatively clean & reliable.
Any opinions [?][?]

I shoot lots of it through my Colt 1991 pistol and Kimber. No real big problems. Most of mine are magazine related. Good blasting ammo.

Generally, the only Wolf I shoot is through my soviet block hardware.  It has always been reliable.  But it is a FAR cry from clean!!!  At least the 7.62X39 and 5.45X39, very very dirty.


Steel cases, don't know if that would hurt the uzi or not.  I don't fire it through my ARs.

Check out the Ammo section of the Handguns forum.

Very smoky, beats up on the bolt face of the gun.

I shot some in a recent night match. Be advised - if you do not shoot the gun dry the laquer will heat up and it will be DAMM hard to pull the slide back.

Other than that no problems - very bright and flashy at night though as well as dirt - not good night ammo

I do not think the Wolf ammo is going to hurt the Uzi.  I think the Uzi was designed for the hot Samson loads.

From what I've gathered so far I think it will be OK for the UZI, may have to spend a little more time cleaning it. I don't think I will try it in my 1911 though.
I know the UZI will take the abuse of the hotter loads, I ran some +P rounds through it the other day & it ran like a champ, although I could definately feel the difference.
I saw some of the Wolf .45 at the gunshow today for $140 per 1000rds, I think I'll go back tomorrow & try a case of it.

Thanks guys!!!

My H&K Tactical chamber is too tight for it, but my 1911 eats it up.

I shot a box through my Springfield, I wont do that again, about every 4th or 5th round would jam or get hung up while ejecting. one round jammed so bad I couldnt even pull the slide back, I had to force it to seat and fire, then I had to dis-assemble the weapon to remove the spent casing. I recomend PMC for a good plinking round Ive as yet to have a problem with them.  [:)>]
