5400 rounds delivered yesterday. That should last a month or so.

I have never shot the Tula .223. It is the cheapest practice ammo out there though isn't it?

Yep, but it wouldn't run in mine. I got at least 3 jams out of every mag. One of em was bad enough that I had to use a cleaning rod to knock out the spent case. My extractor ripped the rim off of it.

Did u shoot brass cases mixed with steel? That's when I have troubles. If I keep it all steel it's pretty good with the silver bear I've shot.
 
I shot ca 1500 rounds of wolf for sure through my old AR without problems. I have shot ca. 600 tula .40 through my factory glock barrel no problem there either. I always clean each gun well before I follow with brass.
 
Only time Wolf gave me trouble was when shooting it through an adjustable gas gun. My rifle ran through about 600 rounds of it without any problems. All of a sudden it wouldn't run it at last years AR Section match. Had a single shot AR for two stages. Now it's Hornady steel match and federal XM193 in big matches for me. I'll save the remaining Wolf i have for practice.
 
Never had an ammo related problem with the polymers coated wolf, even passed cleet rifle instructor school with it. Never tried tula
 
I haven't shot any yet. I just ordered a cheap 16" mid length Palmetto State Armory upper with a chrome lined barrel to run this stuff in. I want to see what I can do with a Middy as well. It should be here this week which means I plan to burn up about 1000 rounds of this stuff next week.
 
Be interesting to note what chambers are having / not having problems with this or similiar ammo.
Also if a chambered round in a h o t bbl cools will it stick when the bbl cools?
Also if you shot a bucket full and let the bbl cool then try and chamber a round if there is any difference in chambering. Be interesting to chrony before and during this test as well.
Interesting if this ammo fails and or if there are only certain circumstances this ammo would fail.
OAL, chrony results, group size cold and hot, how dirty is the ammo, problems cleaning the chamber after shooting this stuff, etc.
Basically break it down for us. Really what else do you have to do with that ammo ;-) Now if you need help I would be willing to assist just to get er done and provide feedback ;)
