Anyone tried Wolf steel-case .303 in the Bren?

[csmarcher]

I have no issues with the wolf steel cased ammo in my semi auto MKII, I have a spare barrel from IMA to use so I dont wear my numbered barrels. I have had zero case head or neck splits with it after 500 rounds, uses the same gas setting . I picked up some of that MEN stuff from SG, havent tried it though, it does have bi-metal bullets like the Wolf so if you are a volume user its a little tougher on the bore. But the brass case is easier on the gun overall..

You lucky bugger !!!

I’m going to run an inspection on my Mk II barrel and bring a spare with me next time as well.

I’m glad it worked okay for you, I’ll give it another go next range day

It works OK in all three of my barrels, but I have only used the one for quantity shooting. I just fired another 100 rounds (Wolfe) yesterday and no issues except loading the first round. The rim drags on the mag so I have to pull the handle twice on the first round, after that its fine (I usually load a mag with 20 rounds). Will probably polish the feed lips on one mag just for the steel ammo.

Only problem is its cheaper so I fire a lot more rounds now, used to fire 40-50 of brass when I took it out and now I fire 100
