wolf in HK?

imlne · 05-22-2009, 03:14 AM

I am finding wolf ammo at the store I buy my ammo. What I want to know, has any body had any luck with this make in the USP? I hear that I am not supposed to use wolf because it'll jam the pistol, but isn't the HK a more durable pistol? Could it handle it?
I guess it wouldn't hurt if I tried 100 or 200 rounds through it.

Just make sure to clean it more thoroughly. HKs are strong. Wolf is dirty dirty dirty so clean it a lot more and you should be fine.

I have a USP compact and have never had a problem with any ammo though I haven't used Wolf in it. I don't think you'll have any problems.
Like FS said though you're gonna have extra cleaning to do.

HKs in my experience... just work. Wolf Ammo in my experience... just works. However unlike the HK, I wouldn't choose the Wolf Ammo if I had a better option. Without a better option it will be fine.

Yeah, options are pretty limited. Sometimes I see only winchester rounds, sometimes wolf.

I have used wolf in my Sig P245 without any problems. It is not nearly as bad as some let on. If you clean your gun after shooting this stuff, then no problems should happen. I have used the Wolf many times, but find the Federal is better and not much more.

I would shoot wolf before winchester white box or remington UMC

Winchester white box is fine, fed thousands of rounds through my guns with no problems. I've used Remington too. Sellier and Bellot are good also. I've never used Wolf though.
