For now on I will stick to brass cased ammo only. ![]() In my opinion if the ammo jams in a Glock there is something wrong with the ammo, and not the gun. However I bought a Glock because I wanted something that was reliable. TulAmmo 9mm Steel Ammo SummaryIf you want ammo that might put you through some exercises in clearing a jammed round, then TulAmmo is great. The result was a smooth casing, that had an almost perfect shine I used a little bit of Blue Magic Metal Polish Cream, and polished one round of TulAmmo 9mm. However it is possible to polish steel casings to shine like chrome. I am not sure if brass ammo is polished or cleaned during the manufacturing process, but it definitely has a shiny finish. Solutions to prevent jamming of TulAmmoIf a metal has a reflective like finish to it, then its going to be smooth. Going from left to right, Brass cased round, Steel cased round, Polished Steel cased round. However I also fired off a box of 50 rounds of Brass cased bullets right after the steel cased bullets, and didn't have a single jam. So its possible that these jams were due to a dirty gun. However I have not cleaned my gun since purchasing it, and there is some definite powder reside on the internals and barrel. This was using my Glock 17 which I bought new a month ago, and have fired about 200 rounds through it previously ( without a single problem ). The round fired but the casings did not eject correctly. Personal Experiences with TulAmmo 9mm SteelThrough the course of shooting a 50 round box of TulAmmo 9mm I had 4 Jams. When shooting everything seems normal, but then you get a couple jams, where the shells did not eject correctly after being fired. This is because there is increased friction between the rounds. Notice how much harder it is to load the Steel Casings. Load a magazine using Steel Cased bullets, then load a magazine with Brass cased bullets. The difference is obvious even before you shoot your first round. Steel on the other hand is not quite a smooth. Brass is a very smooth alloy, that allows very little friction between your gun's internals and other bullets. However what you might save in money you will lose in reliability. Steel on the other hand runs around $800 / tonne ( 2204 lbs ), or about $0.36 / lb. If you were to take some brass to a recycling center you are likely to get much less ( maybe half ). Spot prices for Brass run around $2.60 / lb to $3.00 / lb. First from a cost perspective Brass is much more expensive than Steel. Steel casings vs Brass casings for AmmoAt first you might not think there would be that much of a difference between brass and steel casings. On left 9mm brass cased round, on right 9mm steel cased round I actually like the packaging more than other brands because it takes up less space in my range bag. When boxed up the ammo doesn't rattle around. This is great for retailers as it takes very little shelf space. Its the most compact box you will find for 50 rounds of 9mm ammo. The tray that actually holds the ammo is made of hard plastic, and it leaves no room between rounds. TulAmmo PackagingTulAmmo comes in a black box with red letter that read TulAmmo. Both were holding 9mm ammo, ( as you can see I had used a few rounds of the federal ) On the right is the ammo tray from a box of TulAmmo. On the left the ammo tray from a box of Federal Ammunition. Its basically the cheapest 9mm ammo you are likely to find. TulAmmo's 9mm ammo is 115 grain FMJ ( Full Metal Jacket ) with Steel Casings, as opposed to Brass. Walmart sells it for $9.49 per box of 50 ( as of ). If you have ever purchased Ammo at Walmart then you already know the name. TulAmmo Ammo OverviewTulAmmo is a company based in Russia. But before you purchase your ammo based on price its important to understand that not all ammo is created equal. 50 rounds of 9mm runs between $10 - $12 per box of 50 for FMJ ( Full Metal Jacket ) and can easily get up to $20 per box of 50 for premium hallow points. One of the great things about 9mm ammo is its relatively cheap and available at places like walmart.
