I've been looking to buy a case of ammo and noticed that Wolf is by far the cheapest (around 12cents per round @1000) but they use steel cases.
Looking at some expended Winchester .40 brass it seems the case bulges quite a bit during firing. Is this essential to seal the chamber and keep the gasses going the right direction? I imagine that a steel case doesn't deform like that.
One indoor range close by doesn't allow wolf and I assume it's because of the steel cases mixing with the brass. Silly as it's obviously trivial to pick all the steel cases out before recycling but whatever.
Thoughts?
