What are your experiences with Tula 9mm ammo? I have heard that it is dirty.

It is inexpensive (<$10.00 / 50) from Sportsman Guide above, thus it beckons.

The cases are steel. Any problems with firing a steel case in a fine pistol like my Hi Power?

How cheap are people willing to go for practice or for IPSC? What are the best deals for 9mm that combine economy and performance?

I've shot it a few times through my Beretta 92fs and the only problem I've had is that it doesn't seem to be powerful enough to cycle the slide far back enough for the mag to catch the slide release on the last round. It functions perfectly untill the last round.
I've started putting 1 Federal round in the magazine first and the rest Tula and I haven't had any troubles.

I use it for 3-gun so I don't have to worry about picking up all my brass for reloads.

I have thought about buying some. I have found it cheap. I may try some in my handguns, but I don't know if I want to try it in my AR.

I ran 150 rounds of Tula .40S&W earlier this week through my Glock 35 with no problems, its just a little dirty. And I ran 200 rounds of Tula .223 through my AR at the match today. with no problems.

Tula .223 works great in my AR15. It's really dirty so bring a can of carb cleaner to spray out the majority of the gunk after you shoot it.
