Ok just wondering has anyone had issues with steel case ammo through them? Seems like a lot of reviews were bashing the Mini and claiming issues with ftf. I just got mine out and no issues with any of the ammo. Just wondering what other peoples experiences might be?

I had one that wouldn't light off 3 to 4 out of every 20 round mag full of wolf. It got very frustrating and I sold it because of that issue.

I haven't had a single issue out of mine, but I've also never shot steel case ammo...   Not the most accurate gun, but I can hit a man sized steel target out to 500 yards without too much trouble....   Not the funnest gun to clean though

I've had few issues with wolf too.  Unfortunately, the Mini 30 firing pin spring is not designed for berdan primers which are what most steel cased bullets use.  I have still used steel case for the last 10 years through mine.  I have had good luck with most other brands of steel cased ammo though.  I recently starting buying PPU--it's brass cased with a boxer primer and you can get them online for $10 a box of 20. I will say that I get the best accuracy from Federal Fusion but it is $26 a box.
