i've purchased 1k rounds of 9mm at local ww b4, check them out prior to ordering. $8.97/50 of blazier brass is hard to beat in fmj.

Palmetto shipping is cheap. I bought 1000 rnds of 223 from them and I think shipping was $15. Cheaper than sales tax in TN

I'm sure GT Distributors has some in stock.I'm thinking 220ish for the 9.

Depending on how soon you need it,I might be able to bring it to you if you go that route:)

Regarding Wolf steel cased ammo...

I'm not entirely opposed to buying Wolf to be used at a training class where we'll be funneling anywhere from 800-1000 rds through the weapons, but how hard is this stuff on the extractors in Glocks and M&P automatics?

If it's a non issue, then I'll go the cheaper route and support our Soviet Comrades. If it beats them up like Chris Brown giving a strong backhand to Rhianna, then I'll probably skip it and hold out for some brass cased ammo.

Thoughts?

We'll be running the Glock 19 (9mm) and the M&P 40 (.40SW duh) for this class.

A glock extractor is only about $16 from Midway.

Wolf may not be ideal for consuming mass quantities in one session. I haven't really tried their newer polymer coated cases, but the older lacquer stuff could be a nightmare when the guns get heated up.

I still have about 5 boxes of older Wolf .45 acp (lacquered) that I'm trying to shoot up. The first couple of mag fulls run fine but once everything warms up at least 1-2 cases fte from every mag after. Gun runs fine with brass.

Maybe different gun/situtation story, it's just my experience.

I had ONE box of the Wolf .40 and made it through about 20 rounds of it. It locked my dang gun up so tight I needed a cleaning rod to shove down the barrel, and then banged the gun on a bench to get the casings out. Out of those twenty rounds, I stopped shooting on the 4th lock-up. My gun was freshly cleaned and it was a pretty new gun at that point, too. I also had the same experience with Wolf .223 in my old AR. I'm just done with the steel cased stuff. I love the Wolf 12g 00 buck, but won't shoot any of the other stuff any more. (BTW, I've NEVER has any other case, on any other gun, get stuck in a chamber... just the two times I used wolf, in two different guns)

My $.02

I have shot a lot of steel case ammo through my 15 yo G19 with no problem. Mainly Wolf and S&B and some other stuff made in a country

that ends in "stan" that I can't remember.

Oh and btw, Wolf .22lr ammo is made in Germany and the plant is owned by Lapua.

I've shot probably 200 rounds of steel-cased 9mm (Monarch/Barnaul) through my M&P and haven't had any issues. It definitely gets dirtier quicker, but no extraction or jamming issues.

Well the hunt is over.

I bought a 1,000 round case each of Magtech 9mm and .40SW from Chris Barrett down at his new store (The Outpost). The prices were comparable to what I might have paid online plus shipping and handling, plus I didn't have to worry about maybe-maybenot getting a mail order in time for the class.

Thanks to all who replied!

That's definitely good to know. I'm probably going to end up with another M&P soon in 9mm and will keep the Comblock ammo in mind for future purposes. Especially with the 9mm. I was a little wary of shooting their stuff in .40SW since that cartridge is already loaded to a higher case pressure to begin with.

Did you happen to see any .45 at the Outpost?

Yes, quite a bit of it actually. PMC and Magtech, maybe some Wolf. I don't recall what the pricing was however.

I think its really hit or miss with the Commie crap. I've shot probably thousands of rounds of Wolf through various guns. AR15, Sigs, XDs, and of course my AK. I have never had a problem related to the ammo. In fact, I've had more problems with brass stuff than with steel. I had a very similar experience as Musicman with my AR, except it was with Remington brass. I had to take a wooden dowel and stick it down the barrel and beat the sh*t out of it with a hammer before it popped out. Maybe God hates me. Who knows.

The only Wolf I ever had trouble with was some .40S&W that would not cycle the gun reliably. I have used a limited amount of their .45acp and it was fine. I never really thought about wear and tear from the casing before though. I use a lot of it in the M1 carbine and SKS.

I ordered Saturday night from ammotogo, it's scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. So they are running faster than the claim on their website. Four business days ain't bad.

I hate that the best gun shops are all so far away from here. I would rather do cash-n-carry than mail order.

I'm at 450 rds through my steyr/wolf acid test, and while the gun has been flawless, the ammo has not.

I've had roughly 2 or 3 "dud" rounds per box of 50 (no, not light strikes, the gun leaves a strong dimple on the primers...), and yesterday @ round 425 or so I felt an extremely weak ignition, like a .22 or BB gun... Dropped the mag, racked the slide, and noticed it was only a spent casing that ejected instead of the far too routine thus far, dead, un-ignited cartridge...? checked that the chamber was clear, locked the slide back to take a look... NO DAYLIGHT!

The poorly charged bullet stopped half way down the barrel! I had to knock it through w/ a brass dowel... Then I continued shooting, cautiously...

After so many dud rounds had I not been paying attention, I'd have ruined the gun and possibly gotten injured...

When I'm done w/ this case, I'm done w/ Wolf. Just too many defective rounds to look out for.

SO, had I been running through a fast-paced training course, I wouldn't have noticed only a casing being ejected as I did the "tap, rack, bang" drill by muscle memory, and on the next shot the gun would have gone... KA-BOOM!

forget worrying about it messing up an extractor... it could quite possibly do much worse...
