I was hoping someone had ordered some and give us a report on it. I ordered 1000 Berdan primers and plan on reloading the original Swiss Berdan primed ammo brass.
i would be interested too, i emailed them and they are supposed to be making 303 brit too.
unfortunately, i have been trying to order their 30 carbine for a while now with no luck.
anyone know any place that has the 7.5 or the 30 carbine for sale? ill surely order some and give a report.
ive heard its pretty expensive for wolf. somewhere around 6 0r 8 bucks for 20

Cheaper than dirt has it for $9.79 a box of 20. The price is a bit more than the milsurp, but the brass is boxer primed!

It's made in Yugoslavia I guess.
The price is not bad, but it's not totally great. Just means it is available though.
I plan on ordering some...

Let us know what you think, jonathon. I have 1300 rounds of the surplus stuff, but would like your views on the Wolf.

It'll be a bit, as I don't have a K31 yet... I'm going to get a box of the Partizan stuff that outdoormarksman has, as well as a box of the Wolf and see what groups best.
FWIW, I have shot Partizan out of my MN 91/30, and off hand can easily score a 4.5" group at 75 yards(from the porch to target), though it shoots about 3" low but I think that is the ammo, as the gun is dead on with Polish surplus. Speaking of that, was going to post a pic of that target, but the camera was gone on a ladies retreat :(
Wolf has issued a contract for production of this ammo to Prvi Partisan of Serbia. It will be marketed under the WOLF logo.
i kinda figured they would, its almost exactly the same price as the prvi stuff. ill just keep getting it in the plain ole blue and white prvi boxes then.

I can buy surplus and/or reload my own for less money, but it's always nice to have another source out there.
