"Don't bring Tula to a gunfight" is how the saying goes.
Why? It seems nobody really has a high opinion for any of the inexpensive steel cased ammo. But if your going to choose one which is the best? I've shot many and they all work but I'm looking for good shelf life, non-corrosive, and the best accuracy that can be expected for this grade of ammo. I would really like brass cased but all I can find for good price is older manufacture yugo/euro stuff that is corrosive. 7.62 x 39
I don't use it but it's been reported many times that of the ComBloc ammo Tula is generally the lowest quality.
Wolf steel case from the Barnaul factory is considered the better stuff.
A lot of this ammo is reboxed so you have to keep an eye on what it really is.
Wolf Grendel (brass) is by Prvi for example.
Underpowered and dirty are the common complaints with the cheap steel cased ammo.
If your AR is tuned for Lake City it may not cycle with Tula until you tune it.
That's a lot of useful information, but doesn't answer my question: Should *I* use Wolf in *MY* rifle?
The answer to this one is: Maybe. Sorry, but that's the way it is. You have to try it out in YOUR rifle to know for sure. Keep in mind that Wolf ammo made by Tula is of the lowest quality of this type of ammo, and Barnaul tends to be better. It is my subjective opinion that your rifle should be able to handle this type of ammo.
That being said, I have not heard of ComBloc ammo causing actual damage to a rifle, such as the dreaded "Kaboom". It may be underpowered, cause stuck cases, etc., but you shouldn't have to worry about your rifle getting blown up.http://www.ar15.com/content/page.html?id=268Here's some Wolf....cheaper than Tula
