[QUOTE="jtischauser, post: 1180217, member: 7006"] I was getting under 2" groups with this stuff today at 100 yards out of my JP rifle. I then went over to the long range steel and ran 100 rounds of brass cased ammo through the gun followed by 100 of the Tula. I was shooting 40 round mags so I reloaded the mag with ammo 4-5 times inbetween 40 round bursts. At the end of my session the rifle was warm. So warm that I had to wear a glove in order to be able to hang onto my VTAC handguard. My session was cut short because once the gun was hot every 2-3 rounds got stuck in the chamber. I had to do the pile driver to the buttstock while pulling on the charging handle in order to clear the stuck cases. This same thing happened to me last weekend in my S&W M&P 15R with some Wolf and Bulgarian spam can ammo after I heated the gun up with a 30 round dump. So I guess the moral of the story is if you plan to shoot a bunch of steel case ammo take it slow and let the gun cool down some to avoid stuck cases. [/QUOTE]
