Details

Bulk-priced for cheap varminting or target shooting, these .223 Remington cartridges are a great choice for your AR-15 or other .223 Remington rifle. Each cartridge in this case of 500 (containing 25 boxes of 20 rounds each) fires a 55 grain bimetal jacketed hollow point with a simple, economical design that provides fragmentation on impact to bring down coyotes, and other pests.

This Wolf ammunition is made in Russia using non-corrosive Berdan primers and steel cases. The steel cases cost significantly less than brass and, while not reloadable, offer reliable performance thanks to their polymer coatings.

Detailed Analysis:

What Shooters Praise (The Pros)

Reliability

The majority of reviewers report no serious malfunctions, with thousands of rounds fired and only isolated failures to fire or extract. A few users experienced rare jams or reliability issues—often attributed to magazines or specific rifles—while one reviewer encountered frequent failures in their particular firearm, suggesting some variability depending on weapon platform.

Performance

Performance is described as consistent and adequately accurate for the price, providing reliable groupings suitable for practice and skill improvement, though not at the level of premium match ammo. One or two users note somewhat dirty firing, but overall satisfaction with handling and consistency is high among most reviewers.

Bargain

The ammunition is universally praised for its excellent value, enabling extensive shooting without a significant financial burden. Shooters highlight the cost advantage, making it a go-to option for bulk purchase and frequent use.

What to Know (The Nuances)

- Cleanliness: Multiple reviewers note the ammo is 'a little dirty,' though most view this as a minor tradeoff given the price; cleaning intervals should be considered.
- Casing Material: Steel case construction is repeatedly referenced. Casing is not reloadable, which is normal for this type but may matter to reloaders.
- Compatibility: Performance may vary with specific rifle models and magazines; while most have flawless results, a few report occasional feeding/ejection issues.
- Origin: Some mention the Russian origin but do not report associated issues beyond those discussed.
- Fast Shipping: Several positive mentions of quick order fulfillment (for customers purchasing online).

Conclusion

Wolf .223 55gr HP steel-cased ammo is a highly economical and widely effective choice for training and recreational shooting, especially for those prioritizing round count over benchrest accuracy. While ammunition cleanliness and steel casing limitations are tradeoffs, most AR-platform users experience dependable function and excellent value. Buyers seeking reloadable brass or flawless premium performance might look elsewhere, but for most budget-minded shooters, this offering provides substantial utility and satisfaction.
