Is it steel cased? If so, I'd stay away from it.

Cheaper steel/aluminum cased ammo tend not to feed as reliability as brass. And most of the steel case ammo is manufactured in Russia or China, which means they are reserved for AKs.

Blockages, casing braking in chamber/barrel.. and I've heard they have a laquer that comes off and builds up in rifle.

I've heard Wolf or TulAmmo is great for an AK47, but I'd never run it through an AR.. Certainly not one that cost over $2k LOL

I would not touch any steel cased/cheap ammo (Wolf/TulAmmo)... Heard way too may horror stories.

Personally I use "Federal - American Eagle" for both my Rifle and my Sig Sauer P226 handgun.

Federal is good stuff. I stock up on their Champion series that is available at Wally World for my 9mm handguns.
