steel-cased ammo

I'd like to hear your experiences with steel cased ammo, especially with black rifles. I've never used the stuff, figured it would be hard on ejectors,extractors, ect. Are my assumptions wrong?

I have used it but it is dirty and not very accurate. A buddy of mine has fired thousands of rds of it and never broke a extractor
You can still get good brass cased ammo for around $300.00 per 1000rd

I've shot a bit of it, not terribly accurate, dirty, but it goes bang. what can I say, I'm cheap...

just clean your chamber if you use the stuff with the laquer coating on it. I use it all the time, and never had a problem that cleaning my rifle wouldn't fix. it isn't that accurate, but will work for killing pigs at 200 yards.

The new stuff with the polymer coating runs fine through my mini-14 as far as accuracy its minute of human stuff. Ive run over 2k of the polymer wolf and wear is normal on the extractor. It is dirty but it does what i need it to.

I've thought about getting some just to use as oh shit ammo, because it's cheap, but I've always been a little leery, worrying about the lacquer melting in a hot chamber and making a bad situation even worse.

Wolf stopped using lacquer coating years ago, its coated with something else now.

I use it mainly because it is cheap. No function problems and accurate enough for or good as I shoot now (without a scope) I don't find it much dirtier than the GI surplus but then I've been saving the GI because it is re loadable.

I use it for the go bang times. For self defense I use proven major brand stuff. I like the steel case for the cost and I don't worry about saving the brass. I doesn't hurt if I loose a couple. So far it has worked well in all that I have used it. AR, SKS, Many 9mm, and hell I am even looking for some 45acp if I can find it.

Right now AIM has brass cased PMC 55 gr FMJ for $279.50 a thousand.
