Thread: Cheap Blasting Ammo

  1. #1

    Cheap Blasting Ammo

    Is there a functional difference between these two? Is the Tula with a silver colored alloy safe for polygonal barrels?

    Tula 9 mm

    Wolf Polyformance 9 mm

    Between Wolf and Tula I would take Wolf any day. I've had lots of issues with rock-hard primers with Tula, as well as obviously out of spec rounds. I have shot tens of thousands of rounds of Wolf 9mm and had zero issues. YMMV.

    Shot in the dark....Does anyone have a source of cheap .38 special or 357 mag? Reman would be OK as long as it's a reliable source. I know of freedom munitions, but wondering if there are any others out there. Thanks!

    I have been satisfied with my freedom munitions .38. Have shot probably 2-3 cases worth of it. No idea about their .357.

    Precision Delta has cheap reloaded wadcutters for something like $225 per thousand (if memory serves me right).

    Down the road from Quantrill's big raid.
    Wolf doesn't make ammo, they just sell it. Tula used to be a big supplier for them.

    Lately I've heard from friends of serious issues with Tula, including blown up carbines. I've never had an issue with any of the Russian ammo, but I know other people have.

    I was in a class a couple weeks ago and a guy shooting Tula 9mm had constant failures to fire. At least 10% of the rounds, but probably closer to 20%. Seemed to be due to hard primers.

    My local Wally World has a never ending supply of Federal Aluminum so I've been shooting it recently. It's cheap(ish) and always goes bang.
