Dan,

Have you used the Prvi "match" ammo? I used some in my F-class service rifle and wasn't very impressed with it.

Sonfa B!!!

It was $419 Friday, I was going to call Monday and get a case...

I have used the Wolf Gold which is the same stuff from the same line and same components and it seems to be great stuff but I have not run enough groups yet to trust it.

 

[SKYWLKR]

OK whew... Widners still has it for $419 shipped (EDIT: Seems as though they don't offer free shipping on a case anymore...)! the Rem Privi, Wolf gold, Privi Part. and rem match are all the same.

I haven't shot any of it, but several guys have. LCPL4 on this board has used it out to 600.

 

[dzelenka]

This is new ammo in new brass.

I get Black Hills remanufactured 75 match for the juniors. It shoots good, but I have had enough case failures that I wouldn't use it for defense (unless it was last resort). I stocked up on newly manufactured Black Hills 75 match for SHTF work. I paid around $500 per 1000 for it.

I can buy 75 gr. WOLF all day long for $280 / 1000 . Who cares if it's " match " grade ?

People who are actually trying to hit something at distances longer than the end of the driveway.

And you shouldn't put Wolf in a gun that you like.

What barrel twist?

 

[dantheman]

I call ******** based on my own experience . I NEVER said Wolf was match grade , but his anology about accuracy no better than the end of the driveway IS ******** .
I have fired thousands of rounds of Wolf , in several different calibers . I have never had any more issues with it than any other brand of factory ammo . If you'r scared to shoot Wolf in your guns , then I wouldn't trust my life to them . I consider all of my guns to be SHTF weapons and they better be able to digest anything I load in them . So far they do .

Since the thread was merely a courtesy to those folks who are looking for match grade ammo in .223, your post was really irrelevent and not intended to add anything useful. I took it as being pretty troll-like. There are a number of board members who shoot highpower at distances out to 600 yds. Non-match ammo becomes quite problematic beyond 300 yds (although the Marines do shoot M855 out to 500 yds). Further, it does not have the requisite accuracy beyond the 200 yd stage. I was exagerating when I reduced the distance to the length of the driveway, my apologies. However, if you have such great faith in Wolf ammo, you are welcome to come shoot a match with it. I must say though, no highpower shooter that I know shoots the Wolf ammo to which you refer.

I also stand by my statement concerning not shooting it in a gun that you like. Why would you put laquered steel in your gun when brass is available? For me, I only put good ammo in mine which means my handloads or ammo made by a US or NATO manufacturer. I guess that I am just picky.

 

[dantheman]

Wow , troll like ? That would cover the majority of the posts on most threads .
I believe I stated at least twice that the WOLF wasn't match grade , and nowhere did I advocate shooting it in a match . This is a discussion forum after all , but if you were offended , then I offer my sincere apology .

 

[dzelenka]

Not offended, but what was there to discus? I was merely notifying any interested person that the ammo was available. I wasn't advocating it or even commenting on it. However, there are non-handloaders who need heavy bullet match loads for the longer ranges. Not pop and giggle ammo.

 

[dzelenka]

To be fair, most wolf, the .223 to be sure, is poly coated these days...

Shows you what I know.

1:9

 

[dzelenka]

That could be the issue. I would think that 75s are marginal in a 1:9. Some shoot them, some don't. Just because it says 1:9 doesn't mean it is exactly 1:9. For the 77s I like a 1:7 or 1:6.5. There are a number of us that believe they shoot 77s better than the 1:8s.

 

[CavalryJim]

Perhaps. FWIW, my rifle does very well with the Hornady 75grn HPBT.

Ballistics is a quirky thing. Sometimes I think there is some voodoo involved. Why a load will shoot in one gun and not another or why one bullet will shoot and a similar one won't is a mystery that elludes me more often than not.

It's all in how you hold your jaw when you pull the trigger.
