Wolf Ammunition

Is all Wolf ammo crap or is it just certain calibers. I have had a lot of feed and fire problems with the stuff I have bought.:(

I only use Wolf in communist weapons, as they were designed for it. Works great in my Mosin, or AKs.

I tried some Wolf 45acp steel case in my Para 14.45 LDA Limited and it was a jam-o-matic. The lacquer coating on the casing causes all kinds of hell.

That’s the last time I cheap out and buy Wolf.

From all that i have been told by many range ppl, NEver ever feed Wolf into anything you care about.

It\'s not going in any of my guns

Wolf SS .22 ammo, as made by SK (Germany) is excellent ammo. Clean (as clean as .22 ammo can be), reliable and accurate. Any other Wolf ammo I would only recommend for Com Bloc weapons (AK, SKS, etc. ) Some AR\'s love it while others choke on it.

Never bought any, never will

I have used it in my AK. It seems to work pretty well however....

I have gotten a couple of rounds with a severely dented primer (like it was used) and the cartridges would not fire. I noticed them BEFORE I put them in the gun.

Accuracy was not so good. I bought some Barnhaul ammo and accuracy improved dramatically. The Barnhaul was .10/round while the Wolf cost me .08/round. The Barnhaul ammo has a lacquer finish where the \"new\" Wolf has the polymer coating.

Wolf 7.62x54R will print 3.5 inch at 100 yards out of my 62 year old Mosin M38. Good enough for this non-rifleman. I don\'t have to worry about it being corrosive, even though I stockpile the surplus stuff.
I will never use it in any other firearm - I watched Wolf handgun ammo fired at the range i worked at, and fireworks shows at the muzzle were common, including ejected cases trailing sparks. Not good....

Last summer I used some 12 ga Wolf target loads for sporting clays. IMO it shot just as well a STS Remington.
