PRVI XM193 is good ammo.

the 75 grain match ammo is good too.

Aim Surplus http://www.aimsurplus.com/acatalog/223.html

Sold out.

wideners.com, it is where I’ve ordered all my Prvi M193, usually have a lot in stock.

This is what I usually shoot. They come to most of the gun shows near me and will bring my order with them so I can pick it up and save on shipping. Never had a problem with an of their stuff.

Exactly! That stuff makes AR’s go KABOOM! Cancel the order!

Wideners and Aimsurplus has good prices on Prvi.

Canned Heat makes ARs go KB!

No self respecting AR shooter would fire Wolf Ammo
in a thousand dollar rifle. I have more respect for
my rifles than that.

I shoot only Lake City XM193 55gr FMJ.
(In the brown 20rd box)

Canned Heat IS brass ammo. Prvi is good brass ammo. They did have some problems with certain lots, but the M193 and 62 grain is GTG.

As far as Wolf is concerned, to each is own. I have no problems shooting it in both of my 2K+ $ rifles and no malfunctions with it. It’s cost effective for me, since I shoot 6K+ a year in AR ammo, (12K+ in rifle, pistol and shotgun in the last 12 months) occasionally testing various brass and steel cased ammo while holding my brass in reserve for classes when the opportunity presents itself. Good brass ammo fails and goes KaBoom too. While on active duty, I have been on ranges where military brass ammo has Kaboomed ARs. I also had military match grade ammo go kaboom on me at Camp Perry back in the day. It doesn’t happen often, but it does happen. YMMV.

Any thoughts on Black Hills Ammo? I got away from Wolf Ammo because it is made in Russia. Sorry boys, i am a little paranoid.

Lurker for a while, but I have to know - Did Georgia Arms stand behind their stuff when this happened? Or is it sold “without warranty”?

TIA

According to a post on M4C, by someone at GA, they repaired guns.

Thanks. Good to know.

Same here, my high $$ carbines all see Wolf almost exclusively. The only AR’s I don’t use Wolf in are my precision rigs. Wolf is perfect plinking ammo - between myself, my coworkers and my buddy that owns Michigan Defensive Firearms Institute we fire well over 20k rounds of Wolf a year. We have never had a major issue. My coworker had a few stuck rounds but once he reamed the WOA chamber he hasn’t had a problem. Wolf is training ammo, I wouldn’t use it for SHTF…I have good ammo for that. Snobs can rag on Wolf all they want, I would rather train and Wolf allows me to use more for the same amount of money.
