More like brown boar.
I would get it at that price. Just be sure to scrub your chamber very well and you will be GTG. It is fun plinking ammo but..... |

That used to be my belief but was proven wrong on this site. This is discussed bi-monthly here. The laquer will not come off. A member here was said to have taken a spent round and hit it with a torch and was unable to wipe any off with a towel, as per ol_painless. |

The stuff I shot was only 1 box of each. But I also was impressed at the recoil impulse. I think it was stiffer than wolf. It didn't really seem super inaccurate to me. A good range round and if it was the last thing I had for SHTF or SD, I wouldn't NOT use it. |

I just completed a Magpul Dynamics carbine class and shot about 1500rnds in two day. I used the silver bear 62gr from aimsurplus. I had two stuck cases in this two days. I was running a POF and never once lubed the weapon. I am not sure if i had lube in the chamber/colt if the stuck cases would have been prevented or not.
Just to mention that two other people in the class had popped out primers from their AE XM193s that completely put their rifle out of action for a few minutes. So no ammo is perfect. I would not use steel case for SHTF or SD but for range or a carbine class i think its a waste to spend money on premium or more expensive ammo. |

Have shot many cases of Silver Bear in my Chrome lined Mod 1s - Only problem I had was hard primers, changed the hammer spring to a Wolf extra power one, problem solved. Great plinking ammo. Buy all you need & send me the rest!!

I never had a problem with Brown Bear ammo, although it was only 20 rounds.
At that price I would say go for it, if you aren't happy with it I would be glad to take it off your hands. |
