[QUOTE="mmchambers06, post: 1032485, member: 4445"] Looks like all good info. My favorite steel cased ammo is Silver Bear. The cases are coated with Zinc. It's about $.26 / round, a cent or two higher than the polymer coated stuff. It's been more accurate and less dirty than the cheap brass-cased ammo (i.e.: Rem UMC). ETA: Some people say that steel-cased ammo will wear extractors out faster, but the cost of an extractor over 4,000 rounds is pretty negligible compared to how much money you'll save buying steel vs. brass assuming you don't reload. I have also had some magazines that didn't like Wolf black box, but fed brass just fine. No trouble with any ammo in quality mags (Magpul, Lancer, etc.). [/QUOTE]
