Details
This newly manufactured 9mm ammunition is PERFECT for target practice, range training, or plinking. It is both economical and reliable and is produced by one of the most established ammunition plants in the world.
Tula ammunition derives its name from its birthplace, the Tula Cartridge Works in Tula, Russia.
The Tula Cartridge Works was founded in 1880 and is currently one of the largest ammunition manufacturing plants in the world. The Tula name has gained a following worldwide for its rugged, reliable, and economical product. This cartridge complies with CIP requirements and the casing features a polymer-coated steel casing with a non-corrosive Berdan Primer. The projectile features a bimetal jacket (contains steel) and a lead core resulting in excellent ballistics characteristics.
Please note that in mid-2015, Tula began using zinc-plated projectiles. Although these projectiles may look strikingly different than the copper-plated bullets you're used to, rest assured that they will function and perform exactly like the Tula rounds you've always bought. Due to Tula's production and shipping schedules, we're unaware which type of projectile you can expect in your boxes.
Muzzle Velocity: 1150 fps
Max Pressure: 35,500 psi

I was not sure about Tula due to other people's comments about it being "dirty ammo".
OK, it is dirtier than some of the higher priced ammo. But for range ammo it works perfectly well in my Glock 43. I clean my weapons after each use, so they do not sit around dirty after shooting.
For range ammo I find this ammo just fine, no problems. (Posted on 3/7/17)

For a steel round I expected to have some major maintenance after going to the range, but to my surprise after putting around 100 rounds through it I did not have to do an extreme cleaning for my PT111. As long as you keep up routine maintenance you won't have an issue. The one drawback I did not consider is that most indoor ranges where I live do not allow steel rounds. Otherwise I strongly recommend Tulammo. (Posted on 3/5/17)

Tula Ammo is working at becoming a competitive force in the shooting industry (see their American representative website). I was a little leery about ordering Russian-made ammo, but I've been shooting a major brand that's made in Brazil, so what the heck. The ammo was a great bargain on sale, too good to pass up. It feeds well, shoots well, and is clean to shoot. I put 100 rounds through my Ruger 9E with 2 failures to eject, which can happen with any ammo and, as I was getting tired after having shot over 200 rounds, may have been a grip problem with me anyway, so I can't say for certain that it was the ammo. With any brand of ammo occasionally there will be feed/eject/misfire problems and any semi-auto shooter takes that in stride. Overall I'm very pleased with it and will certainly order more. And kudos to bulk ammo! I've ordered from them twice now and their shipping is ridiculously fast! My ammo arrives in perfect condition, and their everyday low prices make it affordable for me to shoot as much as I want to without making such a dent in my wallet. Thanks! (Posted on 2/5/17)

Just finished shooting 1000 rounds of this ammo through my S&W 9mm Performance Center Shield. Not even one issue. All fired and ejected just as it's supposed to. Three separate shooting sessions shooting 300, 350, 350 each time. Cleaned very thoroughly between each session. (Posted on 2/4/17)

I've now gone through 2,000 rounds of this Tula ammo and will purchase again. I do think it fires pretty dirty, but that doesn't make much difference if you clean your weapon on a regular basis. I usually don't shoot more than 300 or 400 rounds at a time and clean my gun after each session so dirty is not a problem. I do notice some smoke but I shoot outdoors so that's not a problem either. I did run into one box of 50 that contained 4 rounds that didn't fire. The primer was dented but the round didn't go off. I'm told Tula uses very hard caps and this batch must have had some extra hard caps that wouldn't go off. I think this stuff is great for target practice, just review your misfire procedures, keep the weapon pointed in a safe direction for 30 seconds etc. (Posted on 12/21/16)

After nearly 2000 rounds I broke my dependency. Yes, it's reliable and a little dirty but I worry about the wear on internal parts of my pistol. I don't think my magazines were happy either.

Shot all 1000 rounds in a day in a glock 19 and a cz75b, had 3 fte and no ftf. All the residue cleaned off the guns way easier than any of the more expensive brands I've used at the range too, I will definitely buy this again. (Posted on 11/22/16)

I love this ammo. The only issue I had was my indoor gun range does not let me use steel bullets. I noticed that there is not as much kick as the usual FMJ Winchesters I shoot, with the same load. I would buy this again, and always in search of less expensive ways to get down to the range as often as possible.. (Posted on 10/26/16)

This ammo works great. Out of 1000 rounds I only had 3 hiccups out of my glock 19. I would buy again for the price. It is a little dirty but for $170 dollars I cannot complain. Not sure what guns these other people were using but it is just as reliable as the other companies ammo. It is great range ammo. (Posted on 8/25/16)

Any one who's shot for awhile knows TulAmmo. Yes. It's dirty and not entirely reliable. Look at stove pipes and FTE's as a way of practicing clearing your malfunctions.
For this price per round I'll shoot it all day. Great practice ammo at a great price. (Posted on 7/1/15)

I run this through my G23gen3 w/Trudot sights w/ Storm Lake 9mm Conversion barrel and tungsten guide rod. I normally shoot a 3-4in grouping at 10yards. I've maintained the same grouping at 15yards.
It's dirty ammo but not the worst. I haven't cleaned my G23 w/ close to about 2000rds with Tula and Blazer through it. I would say 1800 of the rounds were Tula. I know a firearm should be cleaned after each range session, but I'm tired of pampering my G23.
I haven't had much real critical malfunction issues with this ammo. All the rounds fire with no problem. I've had a few Failure to Eject and stove pipes, but I think it's due to my guide rod and 9mm conversion barrel (or due to me not cleaning my firearm). However, I use that as an opportunity to practice clearing malfunctions. Also, I've never had an issue with casings stuck in the chamber after firing.
All in all, it's a great/cheap ammo to practice with. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS AMMO. Would I depend my life on it? Yes and no. I would rather carry hollowpoints than ball/FMJ ammo. However, I would carry this ammo if it's all that's left, because you'd be stupid to turn down any ammo at all when there's none.
Use this ammo to practice on your grip, trigger squeeze, sight alignment, and etc. HAVE FUN! (Posted on 5/25/15)

Q: What is the core or slug...is it lead or steel?
Posted On: 12/20/16 By: Fred
A: Hello Fred,
This ammunition is manufactured with a lead core, bi-metal jacketed projectile. The jacket of the projectile does contain steel, so it will not pass any type of magnet test.
