I have never shot this ammo before. Does anybody know if it is worth a damn for target practice?

Tula Ammo 45 APC 230gr FMJ

Thanks in advance.

it goes bang when you pull the trigger but it is dirty. I have never had any issues with Tula.

They won't allow it at my local range.

If you shoot steel cased ammo, your extractor will wear out sooner. Brass cases are a softer metal that will take most of the abuse from metal to metal contact. When using steel case, you have steel on steel where the case meets the gun.
A 1911 extractor only costs $15-30, so no big deal.

Your other problem is barrel wear.

I asked Wolf about something related to this this by email some time ago. They told me their bimetal/copper washed jackets and laquered steel cases will accelerate chamber and bbl wear, even in chrome lined bbls and chambers, compared to brass cases and copper jackets.

Even if they would allow it at my ranges (which they don't) I am a ammo snob and wouldn't show that out of my guns unless I was forced to.
