    Steel case ammo

    I'm thinking of buying a few thousand of steel case 9mm and 45. (Wolf or CCI Blazer) I had heard that steel cases are not good for HKs and Glocks. Any opinions?

    Don't know about Glocks, but I have fed a butt load of steel case ammo through my HK's and have not had a single problem.

            Blazer Brass is not steel case ammo. And neither dos CCI Blazer(the black box), it's non-reloadable aluminum casing.

            To the OP: Buy a few box try it out with your gun first before you buy in bulk. In my experience, steel ammo (like wolf) just with a bit lower quality. They means the diameters might be slightly off every now and them. Which may or may not cause the FTF/FTE. Some believe that steel casing might damage your ejector/extractor for the hardness of steel. But most people don't like time because they are non-reloadable. So first make sure your shooting range allow steel casing(they make some money by selling casings, so if some steel cases mix in them will be bad). Them try it out with your guns see if they like steel case ammo.

            My glock with stock barrel don't mind steel casing ammo but with Lone Wold barrel it will FTE.
