[QUOTE="Super Dave, post: 2430409, member: 8429"] Never for me. I did shoot a 16 inch barrel I used to have to the point of not cycling using steel cased ammo. Probably was the 1,000th round. It is a little dirtier to shoot, but the gun was a filthy mess to start. Cleaned it, no problems. The steel used in the cases is MUCH softer than the steel in your barrel or bolt. The only down side I see is if you are a reloader, you get no brass, you can't shoot it at H&H, and it is not match grade by any means. Good enough for cans, paper, or anything that needs a hole in it. I had some a few years back, maybe Silver Bear? Anyway, what ever it was the coating was pretty generously applied, so I gave each round a scrubbing twist on the projectile end before I stuck them in the magazines. It was only a few hundred rounds. Something to do in front of the TV. It was just a couple of bucks a box then. [/QUOTE]
