Not for my G21
Review by Sean -
I have a G21 as noted above and a Hi-Point 4595 carbine. The first round I loaded in the Glock stopped half way in the chamber. First time I've ever seen my G21 fail to load properly. I shot the 13 rounds I had loaded in the mag without further problems. It seemed to be as accurate as the Blazer ammo I normally shoot, so no problems there. It may be nothing, but the finish on the casing just seems to not work for my G21. Good thing the Hi-Point loves eating this stuff, and every trip to the range I go through 100 to 150 rounds with it. Great price for .45acp ammo and good quality. I will definitely be buying more Tula ammo for the 4595. (Posted on 11/1/12)Ammo Performance Bargain? Reliable? -
Reliable, inexpensive ammunition, even for 1911s.
Review by Sean M -
I ran 500 rounds through my Sig Sauer 1911 Nitron Rail (5" barrel). I suffered 2 double-feed malfunctions. These are the first double-feed malfunctions this gun has suffered, and I believe this is due to the ammo. Otherwise, I am pleased with the performance. I will definitely buy again.

Fantastic
Review by Mr. Awesome -
Shot 1,000 rounds through my XDm yesterday without a single hiccup. Rounds cycled smoothly and were accurate as much as I am. Will be ordering again! (Posted on 10/21/12)Ammo Performance Bargain? Reliable? -

Totally reliable ammo using Smith & Wesson 1911 E series
Review by kinojack -
Went to the range early October & shot 400 rounds with my S&W 1911. Did not have any failure what so ever. Very good ammo.Ammo Performance Bargain? Reliable?
Con: Most indoor ranges do not permit using steel cased ammo, especially Russian ammo.
Other than that, the ammunition performed flawlessly. I clean my pistol everytime I use it & did not notice any additional powder residue buildup with this ammo. For the money, I could not find a better price anywhere on the internet. (Posted on 10/12/12) -
Best bang for your buck
Review by JohnnyB -
Have not had a single issue with it, very tight grouping, I put 250 rounds thru my para 1911 seemed to run a lot cleaner than most ammo, no misfires, no hang ups, very good product and an awesome company, fast shipping and no headaches, thank you bulk ammo (Posted on 10/4/12)Ammo Performance Bargain?

Great Ammo!
Review by ems -
Fired 150 rounds the other day, not a single jam. Awesome goupings. Once sighted in, I was tearing the bullseye up! A lil smokey, but, it didn't really seem any more dirty than normal when I cleaned out the gun. (Posted on 9/17/12)Ammo Performance Bargain? Reliable? -
4 inch groups at 25yd
Review by XD45 -
I was apprehensive after hearing bad reviews about Russian ammo, but 300 rounds in and no complaints! I'll definitely be ordering more Tula Ammo in the future ; ) .My only disclaimer is some indoor ranges prohibit steel cased ammo, so make sure your familiar with your local ranges policy.Ammo Performance Bargain?

Good ammo
Review by Old Fart Biker -
I've shot a bunch of TulAmmo have had only a couple of feed failures.I highly recommend it. (Posted on 8/5/12)Ammo Performance Bargain? Reliable? -
Awesome Price. Awesome Quality!
Review by S&W 1911 E Series -
I just went to the range today and shot 150 rounds. My gun only jammed once.. I have shot many different types of ammo before which has caused my gun to jam several times. This ammo is reliable and pretty accurate too. I DEFINITELY recommend this ammo. Great price for great quality. (Posted on 7/29/12)Ammo Performance Bargain? Reliable? -

Good Stuff
Review by Burnside -
Was previously running American Eagle, now running this due to much cheaper price. Heard that steel cased Russian ammo runs dirty, but other than the powder smell, this stuff runs CLEANER. Pleasantly surprised, will not be afraid to run any steel cased ammo in the future. (Posted on 6/19/12)Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain? -
It's cheap but...
Review by Mike L -
Ran about 400 rounds through my G30sf. No problems with the gun whatsoever, but it's a Glock, so they are not picky. Accuracy was about average. What I did notice was the smoke and sparking from the ammo. When I say sparking I mean both from firing AND from the rounds hitting the metal backstops at the indoor range I shoot at. This makes me wonder if this is, in fact, a metal cored round? On the plus side - it's CHEAP! With .45 rounds getting so expensive, it's nice to see something reasonable out there.Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain?
Bottom line: This is good enough for now, but I will probably experiment with other rounds later on, even though I know they will be more expensive. (Posted on 6/12/12) -
Its ok and cheap!
Review by Steve -
Of the 300 rounds I have shot only two failed to fire. That being said due to the steel casings the ammo is verrry dirty. Be prepared to clean your gun often. (Posted on 3/22/12)Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain? -
Great Ammo for practice
Review by Ric -
My grandson and I fired 400 rounds about 2 weeks ago and this was great ammo. No misfires, good groupings and a great value. I’ll be a long time customer. The steel case is a little harder to load than brass but this is a very small criticism. (Posted on 3/20/12)Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain? -
Great Ammo
Review by Chili -
Went through 150 rounds the other day in my Remington 1911 R1. Awesome. No misfires and very accurate. Didn't appear to leave much residue either (I fired some other brand at the same time which is a little dirty so hard to tell with the cross-contanimation).Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain?
Definitely a good deal: about $.30/cartridge. I couldn't find that price anywhere else on the net and definitely not at my dealer. (Posted on 3/13/12) -

Review by Steven -
I have shot over 2000 rounds through my Kimber Custom II 1911 and my Rock Island Armory tactical 1911. I have zero misfires with the ammo. It shoots great and just as accurate as other brands. I recommend this to anyone who wants cheap target ammo. (Posted on 2/7/12)Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain? -

Shoot over 250rnds w/Kimber Cust II
Review by Moss 5hundo -
and the only problem I had was one miss feed. the box showed up one day late and damaged. delivery was delayed, the carrier had to tape the box and relable the package in order to deliver. otherwise as promised. I would continue to buy and shoot this ammo from BulkAmmo.com. held solid groups at 30 yrds. 3 star bargain, cause things could always be cheaper. (Posted on 1/18/12)Reliable?

I wouldn't buy it
Review by forklift -
The ammo reliability was poor at best with lots of stove pipes and several failures to extract due to poor laquer coating, it would heat up and stick like glue.Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain?
Same yourself some time and effort, stay with the brass cased ammo. (Posted on 7/28/11) -

darn good ammo, darn good price
Review by builder -
being a skeptic i inspected each of 500 rounds. found one that had a tiny nick in it. i keep that one in my pocket. i read that this ammo was dirtier than others. i don't agree with that. it is all steel and some ranges may not allow it. this is good ammo and i will continue to use it.

haven't shot any yet
Review by Robo65 -
I haven't shot any of the ammo yet but upon close inspection of a 50round box I noticed the case rims don't seem to be as evenly cut as brass but maybe that is just inherent in the material being steel instead of brass. Will provide an actual review of the ammo once I have used it. (Posted on 2/28/11)Bargain? Reliable? Ammo Performance
Product Question and Answer
Our customer service team has published this Q&A information as a free service to the shooting community. Please note that BulkAmmo.com expressly disclaims any and all liability with regard to how the shooting community might use this Q&A information. See Terms of Use for more details.
Q: Is this ammo new or reloaded?
Posted On: 2/2/12 By: Eri
A: This Tula .45 ACP ammo is brand new factory ammo, not reloaded.
Q: Is there a coating on the steel and does it come off on the receiver when it gets hot?
Posted On: 10/8/11 By: David
A: This Tula ammo has a polymer coating to protect the steel. It will not come off onto the receiver or barrel.
Q: I have heard that steel jacketed ammo is generally bad for guns and causes excessive fouling and deposits to build up. Is this true and, if so, is there a way to prevent that problem and still use steel jacketed ammo? Thank you!
Posted On: 9/29/11 By: Chris
A: This Tula 45 ACP ammo has a bimetal jacket, which is composed of copper and steel. The jacket is soft enough that it will not damage the rifling of your barrel. The case is made of steel, but this steel is mild, and, like the bimetal jacket, will not cause excessive wear in your pistol. You might find that this ammo does cause additional fouling in the chamber of your pistol because of how steel acts during firing - brass expands to seal against the walls of the chamber, while the steel does not do so as effectively - but this does not take much more time to clean than any other ammo type. A good chamber brush should be on hand no matter what kind of ammo you shoot.
Q: What are the drawbacks of using steel cases? Why do many shooting ranges not allow steel cases?
Posted On: 9/28/11 By: Masher
A: Steel cases are not reloadable and thus have much less intrinsic value. Many shooting ranges resell the brass that is left on the ground or placed in brass buckets, and steel cases would have to be sorted out from this brass. Thus, they do not allow steel cased ammunition on their range.
Q: Is there a performance difference between steel and brass case in .45 ACP? Thanks!
Posted On: 9/27/11 By: Greg
A: Some pistols function better with brass ammunition than with steel or aluminum cased ammunition. Generally, the fewest problems will be had with brass ammunition - but there are many firearms that will cycle steel and aluminum cased ammo without any problems. The only way to find out if your pistol is reliable with any particular ammunition is to shoot it in your weapon.
