How often is steel case debated on here

Its steel case

Stop being poor and use it

I've always seen steel case as being FOR poor people

@Innaswamp what

Don't fucking carry steel case but it makes decent range ammo

If your gun can shoot steels shoot them

Man you’re confusing

Fuck around at the range amm9

Amoo

Ammo. Fuck

if your gun can't shoot steel case...get a new gun

I think the only thing bad I've heard about it is "it can wear out your extractor" and "most steel case is corrosive"

I only believe one of those statements.

Also if the cost delta between brass cased ammo and steel case ammo makes a big difference to you, sure

I mean the delta does add up if you buy enough of it at once

I shoot about 10k a year

the ammo you'd need to shoot to wear out your barrel and extractor outweighs a new barrel

cost wise

buy it cheap and stack it deep

@Bald Eagle Jerk steel case is harder on guns generally. Doesn’t mean it’s enough to break most guns, it’s just more of a statement of fact

It’s because steel does not expand to the chamber like brass does

only thing I will say about the primer sealant is that it gets in the firing pin channel

so clean that out regularly

I have no patience for ammo that dumps my gun full of junk

yeah

I’ll pay a penny more a round to have quality ammo.

I have yet to fully disassemble either my CZ or my Sig

We are talking about pistol ammo

There are some different variables.

But it’s a good article in general

yes

pistol ammo is lower pressure

etc

So it might not be as bad in pistol, then

And doesn’t have an external gas impulse to push the action

Would that cause more stove pipes?
