[QUOTE="Nik, post: 845136, member: 4775"] Wolf and all that steel cased crap has a coating on it that over time gummies up the works. I know lots of people shoot it and shoot it fine, but I will stick to brass and the good ole USA. I understand the cost and if others are willing to risk it or have had good luck then God bless them, but I want to make sure my pricey AR makes a loud noise everytime the trigger is pulled. I have personally seen a guys AR in the gun shop that looked like someone sprayed a nasty clear coat of a Krylon paint can into the chamber. They ended up having spend much more $$$ than they saved on ammo. It would be like buying a Corvette, then filling it up with low 87 octane gasoline that is 10% ethanol. Will the car run, yes it will run. Over time though the extra moisture residue from the ethanol is bad for the fuel injection, not to mention the pre-detonating (pinging) that you are going to experience in your cylinders. Instead you fill up with 100% gasoline that is a minimum 89 or 91 octane. [/QUOTE]
