I agree if it's too picky to be reliable then leave that turd at home.

I'm s firm believer in " if it can't run steel, it doesn't deserve brass". With that being said, as far as long term storage goes, I exclusively store brass cased, "ballistic tip" ( hollowpoint, soft point or " penetrators") rounds. Nothing exactly "premium" by any means; but somewhere between the " good" rounds I keep in mags, and the rounds I use to train with. Typically, the rounds in storage are as identical as possible to what I have at the ready... While range trash is just used to have fun.

Been having a bit of money problems lately and I recently just started running steel ammo through two of my ARs. Tryna save a bit here n there. Anyways, my ARs still run perfectly with it. I also enjoy cleaning my firearms often so its all good. Nice video.

The Lacquer melts and forms very hard and sticky crystals and will certainly jam ANY AR-15 . it will also scar your chamber and require the case to be hammered out of the chamber .

So AKs are more versatile than ARs. Got it.

Only a few have seen it? So what. You're telling everybody on KZread/social media that you have it!!!

You are correct about the chamber becoming sticky with carbon when using steel case ammo. Some AR rifles will run steel much better than others, which seems to perplex many. The problem with many AR rifle chambers is the fact the chambers are not cut properly. Manufacturers will re-use and over sharpen their chamber broaches too many times leaving a tight or out of spec chamber. I have seen this in many popular and high end so called mill spec barrels. I use a function gauge to test all of my new barrels and it never lies.. Always check head space ( preferably with incremental head space gauges), chamber size with a function gauge, gas port size using pin gauges,. barrel journal to gas block fit and check the bore with a bore scope before trusting the barrel with your life. Range shooting toys are a different ball game..

You have raised some Very solid points, thanks for commenting.

The only time I ever had a stuck case in my AR was with a really good Black Hills 5.56 shell. But that was a minor one I would say because I’ve got over 5,000 rounds through it , mostly steel case Tulla but a lot of different brass as well. And it wasn’t from shooting the brass right after shooting steel without cleaning. The gun was cleaned immaculately and it was the very first round of brass of the day that got stuck. It ran beautifully after that though.

Steel cased ammo should only be used in delayed blowback firearms. The higher pressure can cause brass cases to erupt during extraction (no matter how high the pressure of a cartridge is, the chamber walls will prevent it from bursting, but if the bolt starts extracting when the pressure is still high, like in blowback firearms, the friction between the still expanding case against the chamber wall will rip apart the brass and cause a horrific malfunction). So definitely use steel cased ammo in delayed blowback firearms. Otherwise, use brass cases.

I am so glad I watched this video. I never used steel cases ammo but was considering it due to price. Thanks you saved my brand new AR-15

One problem with Russian steel cased 7.62x39 in an AR can be misfires from the harder primers. An Enhanced Firing Pin usually does the trick, but a heavier hammer spring may also be necessary.

Nice documentary!

AR seems pretty picky like a woman not knowing what she wants to eat. AK on the other hand doesn't give a damn, it just wants to eat. No wonder Vietnam vets threw down m16s and AR'S and picked up AKs. Shit who could blame them.

So, very informative! My son and I had fun cleaning up and shooting an old Russian sks During the ammo shortage we bought some tuammo (steel) I assume the old Russian sk should take it fine as long as we clean it more often than not. If /when we get an ar, I will probably think twice about using steel given the mini history and basic physics you explained quite well

There has been proof of premature barrel wear with steel on high speed rifles such as your AR, BUT that only applies if your rifle is not cleaned regularly. Just like the lucky gunnar test where steel ammo shot out the barrels at 6K rounds... That had everything to do with mag dumps and not cleaning the guns, the two worst things you can do. Pistols however, with far less pressures, speed, or other stress factors, have proven to not have damaged barrels due to steel ammo. Of course, the quality of the ammo itself is going to be a bit dirtier and less dependable (why I wouldn't use it as self defense) but otherwise is completely acceptable for target practice. Pistols= no worries Rifles= no worries if you clean frequently

My problem with Lacquered steel ammo is in the Chamber and lugs , the Lacquer on the steel cases melt turning into hard , sticky sand like crystals and will seize the empty case in the Chamber . your rifle is now out of the fight . removing the jammed case requires a rod and hammer , and now your Chamber has scars and scratches . this is not a failure to extract , the extractor was not designed to eject a seized case . Why on earth would you build a fine precision tool and then trust your life with the crappiest of crap ammo ??????? DI verses Piston is irrelevant to the jamming of lacquer coated steel . Clean Brass for me .

A problem with your AR being " over-gassed " because you drilled out / expanded the gas port ? No Sweat ! Just simply get an adjustable gas block from Superlative Arms that expends the excess gas out of the gas block itself rather than pushing the excess unwanted gas back down the barrel & through the gas tube.

If you’re have trouble running steel out of your AR, you need a better BCG (with stronger firing pin) and just need to lube up your gun. It’s not rocket science. There are Navy Seal instructors that also lightly lube their steel in a box before loading mags. I’ve seen this a ton of times in tactical courses. Also, if your gun just refuses to eat steel, it’s probably not worth relying on and you should put tampons on it and send it to the dump.

Wolf most certainly still has ammo that is lacquer coated, usually under the Mil Spec line. Wolf is more like an ammo importation brand than an ammo manufacturer. Different manufacturers make ammo for them, usually the Barnaul stuff is lacquer coated. As far as steel cased ammo being loaded lighter, that only applies to some .223. Other calibers are generally clones of the military loadings or very close to it. The .223 made by Vympel is near M193, and is sold as Golden Tiger or Red Army Standard right now.

Maybe back in the day but honestly it's 2020 if a gun can't shoot steel without failure there's something wrong there.... Just my opinion. I'll run steel until I encounter any problems on my own... Out of 20 years of shooting I have never encountered any of the problems in this video or any other I heard from other people that shoot as well.

Brass all the way.

+Edward Wood Me too, brass just feeds better.

My AR runs fine on steel if I keep it clean and don’t run anymore than 300 or so rounds.. it’s perfect for training. In any serious scenario it’ll be brass

I shoot cheap steel ammo in my cheap Deland AR and allot of it. We are 4 months into 2019 and I have 2,000 rds through it so far this year. Easily 5,000 rds last year. I use it in my Glock 19 and Kel Tec Sub 2000. Never 1 problem. ( gun smith friend checked rifling too ) Now the Tulammo ( Tula Ammo , Tula is the cities name ) in .357 Mag is a different story. I used it in 2 guns; the Ruger GP 100 and Colt Python. Every single round used got stuck in the cylinder due to over expansion. Hammer out stuck! Got em out with no damage to the guns. I'm in the process of trying to return 1000 rds of the .357 Mag now. This is the one time I didn't buy 1 box to test first, go figure. One thing that may make a difference in my case with the .223 and 9 mm. I clean my guns EVERY time i'm done shooting so build up is not an issue for me. I use good ole Hoppes no 9, Rem Oil, and just lately some new fangled organic cleaner and organic lube stuff that i'm not so sure about yet. I even got one of those new gun grease syringes for the AR. I might even open it someday.

357 is a high-pressure round. Not much wiggle room with it.

I've shot a fair amount of aluminum 45 through my 1911 with no problems whatsoever. Also shot steel flawlessly. Since I reload my ammo now I only use brass

My 1911 hates steel

If an ar will run all day with steel case and wd40 (we torture test this ar every time we take it out) and it runs great every time but take it as you will.

Give me an AK any day!!! It'll shoot whatever ammo you feed it, works in any weather, temperature, and environment. AR's are just too fuckin finicky.

as you stated; steel doesn't expand as much a brass; so why would it have a tendency to stick?????????

@skeptikul270

Because steel doesnt expand as well...causing the carbon to blow back in the chamber creating excessive carbon build up

The carbon build up if you watched a little bit farther.

Friction, also. Steel has more friction than brass

Is brass better? Yes. But the truth is the difference between the two is marginal in most cases. Steel can actually be made slightly softer than brass however it's not quite as elastic as brass. Here's a simple test. Does the military use steel cased ammo? Answer; yes they do. If steel cased ammo was unreliable the military wouldn't touch it with a barge pole.

Had to show some broads, lol.

If your AR wont run steel reliably, get a new rifle.

The answer is both
