Details
Tula ammunition derives its name from its birthplace, the Tula Cartridge Works in Tula, Russia. This same plant also produces many of the products branded in the United States as "Wolf Ammunition".
The Tula Cartridge Works plant was founded in 1880 and is currently one of the largest ammunition manufacturing plants in the world. The Tula name has gained a following worldwide for its rugged, reliable, and economical product. This cartridge complies with CIP requirements and the casing features a polymer-coated steel casing with a non-corrosive Boxer Primer. The projectile features a bimetal jacket (contains steel and copper) and a lead core resulting in excellent ballistics characteristics.
This ammunition is rugged like the country where it was manufactured and keeps its qualities under temperatures ranging from -4 degrees Fahrenheit to 122 degrees Fahrenheit ensuring that it will perform when needed most.

- for the price, great stuff for plinking Review by jimbo

Took my 2 sons, 2ARs, 1000 rounds. In 1 1/2hrs these guys tore through it all not one jam. And nothing stuck in the chamber. A lil dirty, but hey it is alot of fun and cheap. jimbo (Posted on 3/11/12)Performance Value Quality - AR platform finicky Review by bigscott

I use for plinking. Bushmaster of mine and a friends would not strip off mags. I use it in my SW MP15 with no issues whatsoever. Accuracy not an issue with what I am doing at closer ranges- 50/100yds. (Posted on 3/4/12)Performance Value Quality - Good so far Review by Dave

Only shot 80 rounds so far with no problems, except the gun looked like a shot 1000 rounds. Dirty ammo (Posted on 1/28/12)Performance Value Quality - Good ammo power does burn a bit dirty Review by Kelly

Over all I love this stuff cheep and when you are putting in 100 rounds in your Beta C and just rocking well you can't do much better unless you reload it yourself. It does get messy especially with a suppressor so I would upgrade if you want to go quiet, but if you want to make a lot of noise and not spend a fortune get ya a case!

Just finished the first 1000 rounds I ordered. Only had two jams in my RRA Operator Entry. Going to order more. (Posted on 1/2/12)Performance Value Quality - Great Value!!! Not so great ammo Review by Kevin
-
I bought this for plinking with my AR, it works fine but it is very dirty and you have to pace yourself to prevent the casings from overheating and getting stuck in the chamber. Definitely wont work in a bolt action!!! i tried running it through my remington 700 and the casing got stuck every time, and i ended up breaking the extractor pin. Overall great value, alright in semi-autos and dont recommend or bolt action at all. (Posted on 11/10/11)Performance Value Quality - DON'T RISK BULK ORDER - TRY FIRST Review by The Barber

I thought I was being smart and ordering 500 rounds for my Stag Model 8.Performance Value Quality
Tulammo rounds won't work with it.
They won't feed, won't strip off the magazine, then when the gun heats up - it won't eject.
I think the lacquer finish is just a little sticky - Perhaps with a DI AR, or a mini14.
REGARDLESS - try a couple boxes before you waste good money on ammo you can't use! (Posted on 10/11/11) - Very Happy Review by Mystryredr

Ammo arrived late yesterday afternoon so I did not have a bunch of time. Popped off 60 rounds through my new M4 without a hitch. I have never had a problem with Tula in any of my firearms.Thanks LG for good price and service! (Posted on 7/30/11)Quality Performance Value - Good at best for AR's V1.1 Review by NCShooter

I will not nor recommend anyone run this in a gas impingement system but I have since talked to others that run a gas rod system that does not heat up the chamber and this ammo works great. (Posted on 7/5/11)Quality Performance Value - good service, decent ammo for plinking Review by Pete
-
It does burn hot, so if you have a weapon that you really cherish, this ammo is not for you. I used it in my mini 14, that, I bought back in 1978. It worked just fine. The steel casings make it easy to use a magnet to clean up the ground when done shooting. I would buy more if it was a touch less$. If it goes on sale for 15 cents a round I would buy more, lots more. At 20 cents a round it is a good plinking round. BUT 5 rounds is a dollar, so I am holding off .223 and shooting .22LR for now. Lucky Gunner ships fast and they seem to be good people to do business with. The website is organized and easy to navigate. I will buy from Lucky Gunner in the future, most likely 9mm ammo, if I buy a 9mm weapon. (Posted on 7/5/11)Quality Performance Value - Good at best for AR's Review by NCShooter

I originally bought this for a gunfighting class. Great value, but it ends there. This is not ammo you want to run in an gas impingement AR platform because it is coated and when it gets hot it will cause the cartridge to get stuck to the chamber. If your using to for plinking, it's OK. As long as you getting sighted in or target practice, etc. But to use it for drills of 100 rounds or more it will not work. It gave me a good opportunity to practice my failure drills. But it also took me off the range twice to extract stuck cases.

-
Bought 1000 rounds for my Slide Fire AR15 with DPMS 5.56 barrel. It only cycled a few rounds through until one was stuck in the chamber and would not extract. Had to hammer back the bolt to get the round out. Tried again and it cycled through a hundred rounds until this happened again. Will not buy this ammo again for my AR15. (Posted on 6/13/11)Quality Performance Value - Great value...dirty ammo Review by jerkyg

I have a entirely different opinion of this ammo. Great value...shoots great...accurate...but, very dirty. After about 100 rounds...will not feed....jams. Have to clean my AR-15 constantly. I have purchased two thousand rounds. But, even with this problem...I will still purchase because of value. Maybe my Nato spec carbine causes this. Lucky Gunner does have great customer service and I definetly recommend them. (Posted on 6/3/11)Value Quality Performance - great amo. cheap to shoot and not dirty Review by litldog
