Try a small quantity first, to make sure your revolver likes these. I have a few GP100's that have no problems with it, and some that will not eject this ammo. I use it for high volume match training, speedloader training, etc. If I shoot 5,000 rounds of this stuff I've saved $500 over brass. If all you need is paper punching ammo , this fills the bill. Also great for single actions.

Used these primarily in my M92 Rossi 38/.357 lever-action. They worked flawlessly and were accurate. Have used them in a SAA Clone and did not have any sticking problems and soft shooting. Good for getting Shooting practice.

Cases swelled in chambers excessively. Very difficult to extract cases from cylinder. Some cases blew the primers completely out. A good price on junk isn't a good price.

I purchased in early Feb before the most recent negative reviews and I expected this to be worry-free target ammo but that is not my experience. I have a new S&W 686 .357 and this ammo WILL NOT eject. I was not expecting this to be the best ammo I have ever shot but for shooting paper on the weekend - I expected better.
Overall, very disappointed

This is a poor quality round. I experienced the same swelling of the steel casing in my S&W M19. It was real tough to extract from the cylinder. The range also informed me that I was not supposed to use this type of round at their facility after the fact. The range attendant also informed me using this round would cause damage to the bore on my gun. I would have never bought this round if I was aware of the issues. Sometimes a deal is not a deal when the quality is not there.

My 38 special revolver does not like the steel casing. Every single one gets stuck in the chamber and require extra force to remove.

100% stuck rare and require significant outside force to remove the empty casing from the chamber. Terrible product for the SW 38 Chief revolver.

They swelled some in my S&W 360 PD, with Titanium cylinder, but no swelling at all in my Smith 66.
Had to hit the cylinder rod with the palm of my hand to eject the empty cases on the 360, but no big thing.
Will still use them in both guns, great buy.

I had these shipped to my Grandaughter who is new to shooting. She lives in Kansas City. She had a little stress locating a range that allowed steel casings. That's no problem here in North Carolina. She worked it out. Thanks for good service.

I knew, before purchasing these, what to expect; therefore I was not disappointed at all. They do not use a brass casing, so you would not want to reuse the empty shells.
They work great for targets, paper, clay, gel, wood. I would say they would be reliable at stopping an intruder. I don't think I would suggest these for hunting bears though lol.

After about 100 rounds through my wife's S&W Model 640 .357 Magnum I have experienced multiple rounds swelling in the cylinder. 2 rounds required me to use vice grips to be able to pull the round out, but outside of this issue the round appears to be accurate enough. Will spend some extra money from now so that I don't have to put the revolver up when I experience this issue.
On another note, Lucky Gunner has been great with purchasing bulk ammo for this, .40 and 9MM rounds. Will certainly continue to order from here, and the shipping has always been prompt.

It's dirty, no question about that. My revolver looks like it's been slung through the mud after just 1 box. I was using brass encased, 158 grain which I very much prefer, but decided to try these due to the excellent price. They are a good value, especially for the range where I might go through 2 or 3 boxes per visit. I will say that the lighter grain makes for less accurate shooting, but all in all, it will do for the intended purpose.

Like the jacketed round, no lead fingers. The steel casings swell a little in my revolver making them tougher than typical brass rounds to eject. Not a big deal, but I took one star off performance since they do behave a little less well than their brass counterparts. OTOH, at their price, I'll push the ejector a little harder every time. Quite a bang for the buck.
