    Which is the "best" of the steel ammo for your AR?

    Wolf, Tula, Brown Bear (or whatever color the bear is....)

    Which of these is the best, or least suckworthy, for getting in some cheap shooting with your AR-15?

      I prefer silver bear but I won't shoot it in my AR that I shoot the most often. PMC is worth the difference in price.

        I was already laughing when I read "or whatever color the bear is..." then I read "or least suckworthy and I almost started crying

        Good stuff

        I say all steel ammo is great if you're shooting it in a AK, SKS, or some Russian style gun.

          I shot about 400 rounds of Barnaul hollow points through my BCM upper a couple weeks ago with no problems at all.

                        Hornady TAP training as others have said. Not once have I had an ammo related malfunction bcause of this ammunition.


                        I had quite a few problms with silver bear though

                            TAP is a badass bullet. Saw a .308 TAP on Locked n Loaded break up completely in 10 inch chunk of ballistic gel and disintegrate a rib roast. That TAP bullet is something else.

                              I shoot Silver Bear 62gr HPBT Zinc-plated ammo. Maybe 3 or 4 FTE & FTF in over 1K rounds. No FTFire yet.


                              Also shoot Hornady TAP 75gr HPBT Training ammo. Good stuff. Not a single problem in the case of 1K I got. Almost done with it, less than 100 rounds left.
