I tried it because it was at such a good price. This is some very good ammo, I love this stuff. If you have a gun that's finiky, try this , the casing is so slik, and it's clean. I've got around 1500 rounds. I guess that's enough. Hmmm
The Magtech steel cases are zinc plated, just like Russian Silver Bear. I never had an issue with any steel cased ammo whether it was lacquer coated, copper plated, zinc plated or polymer coated. I'm sure the Magtech will be good ammo.
Only issue i have ever had with russian lackered or uncoated steel cases is them getting stuck in double stacked magazines. Never an issue on single stacks or ar platform.
Magtech said this is the exact same as their brass cased 115 fmj, except polished stainless case. Same projectile, same primer, same powder. I just bought some of these and I am glad the projectiles are not bi-metal. Lead and copper is easy on the rifling. Even though pistol barrels can take over 100,000 rounds
My experience also. Been shooting Russian & Chinese steel cased ammo in competition since the mid 90s. Always worked. Barnaul was definitely my favorite.
I have also shot thousands of rifle .223 steel cased RU ammo (varnished and not). The one's I've always had issues is the 9mm tulammo. it would not allow me to run my CZ magazines at full capacity because the rounds would stick together and not feed. But as far as the rounds firing, yeah, it works. To me was just annoying not to be able to put all 21 rounds in a mag.
only one I've ever had issues with was 9mm tula so I won't buy that anymore. but none of the rifle ammo like .223 or other calibers (which I still buy) are bad. I've shot thousands of steel cased .223 in my AR from various RU makers and its all good. So my comment was about my experience with the 9mm steel cased.
I remember 10 years ago when EVERYONE agreed that Wolf ammo was trash… Many years later with Plandemic and ammo price gouging, now Wolf ammo is the best ammo ever. Lol
@A-PatrioT Have some Wolf 223 ammo left over from a few years ago. Biggest issue is failure to fire. I tried a heavier hammer spring to no avail. I think the primers are a bit too hard. The 7.62x39 for my AK on the other hand, zero issues.
Well, I appreciate your comment. Yes, my work bench is a bit of a mess. The only issues I've ever had with RU ammo is with varnished 9mm, which didn't do well in my cz shadow 2 magazines (couldn't load all 17 rounds) but as long as I only loaded less than 10 it ran flawlesly. All .223 I've never had an issue. But me personally, I won't be buying more of that varnished stuff. I just liked these magtech rounds.
Bro, honestly, I've put almost 600 rounds of the Magtech ammo through it. It's actually nickel-plated and burns cleanly. The only thing I get is some sparks out of the barrel, but performance-wise, they are great.

this steel is soft steel like brass. No issues.
It works great!
I’ve put 1,000 rds of this through a few ARs and a bunch of pistols, no issues. Just bought 2k more.
Yep. Me too
Good for u
Thanks for the information!!!

The Magtech cases are zinc plated, mild steel.
Bought a box last week
Lets hope the old "no steel case on indoor ranges" guys also get the memo that those new magtechs have completely non magnetic projectiles.
I shoot indoors all the time. Even the range i go to sells this stuff. Most rso know about it by now. I've never had an issue
In my experience the russian - Ukraine steal cass ammo works just fine shot thousands of rounds of it and remember when it was $130 a thousand rounds.

Wolf ran fine in my guns thousands of rounds
I've had a really good experience with Rifle Wolf ammo. But not so much with 9mm
Exactly Wolf steel runs as good as any brass
@@mikopaq aluminum is pretty good stuff too
Russian steel case is not crap 😂

LMAO, you cant be more wrong. I've run1000's of all calibers of RU steel case - ZERO problems. Maybe you your weapons were as clean as your workbench?

Muy buen video . This stuff runs clean and with no issues out of my Glock 17
Right on
How much steel ammo you put through your Glock 17? I have one too and thinking of running steel.

@@agsosj14 that’s what’s up thanks bro. Gonna switch over to steel to save money. Appreciate you.
