Wolf Steel Case

biodsl,
Glad to see we got similar numbers on both the Wolf Steel Case and the Hornady AMAX. I posted my results in an earlier both in this thread. The slight differences we got can be attributed to tolerance spread between our measuring instruments.
All of my larger caliber rifles are 6.5's except for my Swiss K31 which is 7.5x55. I discovered that the K31 barrel must have all possible copper fouling removed after shooting my Handloads with 175gr Sierra MK's when I switch to the excellent Swiss G11 load which uses a gilded steel jacket the groups go from 1MOA to 3-3.5MOA. I plan on testing this as soon as finish the temp job I am working and can get home to do so. Curious if anyone else has experienced similar results. I know I have to remove copper from my handguns before shooting cast bullets and clean my rimfires barrels before switching brands of ammo.
At least I have internet access and can follow the Horde while away.

And God granted it.

It's just plain old Wolf plinking ammo, regardless of the time it took to bring it to market and the hype that came with it. I'll be using it to foul the bore, after a cleaning, before I shoot my hand loads. The case I bought will likely last me until I am too old to shoot....which I hope to be about another 25 years.

Did anyone else have a ruptured case?
I shot twenty rounds into a 4.5" circle at 100yds.
One of the cases split open at the shoulder.
Is that bad, or just something that happens with steel cases?www.FriendsvillePrecision.com - AR15 Dry Fire Device
