Never again
Review by seedman30 -
one out of every 5 had a misfire from first box! Used two guns XDM9 and Glock 17. All you would hear is a pop then had to manual eject. Paid a premium for ammo Too. Wow never again.. (Posted on 5/3/13)Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain? -
Good
Review by Dodg3r -
Good ammo for the price, some ranges dont allow the steel cartridges but besides that I had absolutely no problems shooting 500+ rounds in the Sig 226. (Posted on 3/25/12)Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain? -
Great Value
Review by Steven -
Ammo fired with no issues. The only problem I had was that it would hang up my Springfield Armory XD SC 9mm magazines while loading. Had to hit a little for the spring to put pressure again. Once loaded they fired with no issues. I have noticed not all the shell casings are the same size. I fired through my Ruger Blackhawk revolver and some rounds are tight in the chambers. I assume that is why they hung up in the XD 9 SC. If I did not have the problem, I would buy more. (Posted on 2/20/12)Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain? -
Who knew!
Review by Mal Reynolds -
That cheap steel cased ammo would work so well. I am a convert. Now to go and test the .223 in the Sig 556. (Posted on 2/10/12)Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain? -
Great
Review by Fuzzy -
Ran the full 500 through my Beretta M9 with absolutly no failures, no bad primers, no light loads. Very consistant and actually quite accurite on a bench rest although most of my shooting includes a little more action. Great product i would recomend it to everyone. (Posted on 1/15/12)Reliable?

Very nice ammo and a nice value.
Review by TMost -
I shot almost 150 rounds through my Glock 19 today. I didn't have any misfires or stove pipes. However, these rounds (Wolf/WPA) are banned from this particular range! I asked why but I'm not really sure given the round about answer I got. I think it's something to do with the steel casings and the charges being unreliable. Anyway, they worked great for me but make sure your range doesn't have a problem with them. I have 7 boxes left that I can't use until I find another range that accepts them... Not so many choices in Northern NJ! Willing to sell if anyone's is interested. (Posted on 12/15/11)Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain? -
Great Service, Good Value
Review by Henry Kadoch -
Great service from Bulkammo; fast delivery. Ammo is excellent for the range, no FTF or FTE, seems as accurate as anything else out there. My only complaint is the thin layer of "dust" that's on the bullets themselves. Seemed to clog up my Glock magazines and make feeding irregular. Problem solved by rubbing them down a bit with a cloth before loading. (Posted on 11/20/11)Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain? -

This ammo shot great. I had zero problems and I plan to order more soon for an upcoming match. (Posted on 10/29/11)Ammo Performance Bargain? Reliable? -
Alright for targeting
Review by Mike B. -
I bought 500 rounds, ran 200 through my 4th gen Glock 19 today, loaded kind of rough. Had 3 FTE (1 stovetop). Other then that wasn't too bad I guess for targeting ammo. Seemed to be quite accurate at about 25 feet. Not too shabby for the price. (Posted on 10/15/11)Ammo Performance Bargain? Reliable? -
Great Customer Service
Review by Roccop42 -
Very impressed by the Bulk Ammo reps. Other companies need to follow their example of keeping the customers best interest at heart. They may not always be the lowest price on a certain product; however the service overrides this aspect of the buying process. Thanks again Bulk Ammo! (Posted on 9/19/11)Ammo Performance Bargain?

Too many FTF
Review by spinner -
A bit hot ammo. Its pretty accurate.Ammo Performance Bargain? Reliable?
However, had regularly 2 to 3 FTF for every 10 round with my Ruger SR9C. Never have any at all with CCI or S&B I bought from Bulk Ammo. I can tell when I load them into the magazines. The cartridges feel a bit bigger in diamenter than other ammo. And it feels tight to slide into the magazine and I can tell right a way that I will have jams.
The steel shell is quite diry. Seems have a coat of dust.
I like it being accurate, but will not buy it again because of the poor reliability. If they can fix the problem, I might buy it again. (Posted on 9/5/11) -
Will buy this ammo again.
Review by Snakeeel -
Shot 200 rounds through my Glock 26 last weekend. Ammo shot consistant pattern, very accurate. No misfires, no jams. Cleaned weapon after and had very little residue. Will buy this ammo again. (Posted on 8/17/11)Ammo Performance Bargain? Reliable? -
Excellent value I did not think it even ran that dirty!
Review by Miles Digby -
Congratulations at long last I think you found the worlds greatest deal on 9mm FMJ. After you buy this thereby saving $60 compared to anybody else. I got a idea. Go to http://www.unicefusa.org/ and give $5-$25 towards stopping the Somalia famine! Its tax deductible and takes 4 minutes. Parents in Somalia are having to PICK WHICH CHILD WILL LIVE there is that little food. I have read a lot about this famine and it is truly FUBAR.Reliable? Ammo Performance Bargain?
On to the ammo I found it to be not quite as accurate as some of the more pricey brands. But hell I just love stamping those primers. Also I am not the best shot. But I can usually get a good 5 inch group from 7 yards. It is also just fun as heck to shoot something other than my Ruger 22/45.
I have a Glock 17 I had no FTF or FTE. I did have a stovepipe but that was on a very used clip which I have had for ever (somewhere there is a ball point pen missing its spring sort of clip).
Great deal great service! (Posted on 8/4/11)
Product Question and Answer

Q: Are the cases lacquered?
Posted On: 10/22/11 By: Jason
A: No, these cases have a polymer coating which does not melt or cause sticky/gummy chamber issues.
Q: Does the ammo come in a box? or a good case for storage purposes?
Posted On: 10/22/11 By: Lisa
A: This ammo comes in a fiberboard box with plastic divider for the individual rounds. It is suitable for storage purposes if used correctly and kept in a cool, dry place away from sources of heat and water/moisture.
Q: Why is this ammo so cheap consistently. I have had no more problems with it than more expensive ammo. Is the lack of brass the big cost driver, or is there something else?
Thanks
Posted On: 10/22/11 By: Randy Bachman
A: Low materials costs and low labor costs help this ammo sell at a lower price than the competition, yes.
Q: I would like to buy ammo as a gift for someone who shoots, If I buy him the wrong size, will I be able to exchange it for the right one later?
Posted On: 10/21/11 By: Susan
A: Sorry - because of the nature of ammunition, we are unable to accept returns. It would be best for you to determine exactly what you need before ordering.
Q: Does the steel casings cause any problems with wearing on my handgun compared to brass casings?
Posted On: 10/21/11 By: John
A: No. The major components of your handgun that contact the case are made from hardened steel or anodized aluminum, both of which have far higher surface hardness levels than the mild steel cases used in this Wolf ammo. Additionally, there are high temperatures and extreme pressures involved in the firing of centerfire pistol ammunition that cause far more wear than the brass or steel cases could ever cause.
Q: Why is the Wolf brand ammo so much cheaper than Federal brand?
Posted On: 10/21/11 By: Tony Broadway
A: Wolf ammo is made in Russia using steel cases and bimetal jackets. Russian environmental laws and labor costs lead to lower costs for the manufacturer. Federal ammo is made in the USA with brass cases and copper jackets. Environmental, health, etc laws and higher wages/benefits for American workers lead to higher prices.
Q: I think I have heard people complain that Wolf is more "dirty" and fouls the weapon more tan other rounds. Is this true?
Posted On: 10/20/11 By: M. Scott Blalock
A: Steel cased ammo such as this Wolf acts differently in the chamber, allowing some fouling to build up where it would otherwise not do so with brass cased ammo. However, it is fairly easy to remove this fouling with a good chamber brush.
Q: What is the material used to make these cartridges? I assume they can not be reloaded?
Posted On: 10/20/11 By: M. Scott Blalock
A: These Wolf 9mm cases are made from steel. They should not be reloaded.
Q: Can these casings be reloaded?
Posted On: 10/20/11 By: Ryan
A: No, the steel cases used in this Wolf ammo cannot be reloaded.
Q: Hi,
Will ammo with steel casings damage my pistol?
Thanks,
Joe
Posted On: 10/16/11 By: Joe
A: No, the forces placed on your pistol by the ammunition firing are much greater than the difference between brass and steel. You will wear out many parts before having to worry about the effects of steel cases in your pistol.
Q: Are there any longterm repercussions to using steel cased/berdan primed ammo in modern day firearms? Seems to me that I have had several tell me they are very corrosive and will have long term effects. I'm not a reloader so I'm just trying to expand my shooting budget by paying less for this type of ammo.
Posted On: 10/2/11 By: Steve
A: Corrosive primer compounds are no longer used in the vast majority of new production ammunition, including this Wolf ammo. Berdan primers are a physical design, not a designation of corrosive compounds being used in the case. These Wolf 9mm cases are primed with lead styphnate primers, which are non-corrosive.
Q: I'm considering buying FMJ 9mm to shoot at the range and have as a reserve while buying +P hollow points to use for EDC. Will I be doing myself a disservice practicing with one and relying on another? ie will the additional recoil from +p catch me off guard?
Posted On: 9/29/11 By: Ben
A: You might consider buying some of the bulk 9mm 115gr +P JHPs. However, practicing with standard pressure ammo and carrying with +P is far better than not practicing at all.
Q: Are Wolf ammo primers corrosive or non-corrosive?
Posted On: 9/28/11 By: Mike
A: This ammo is loaded with non-corrosive primers.
