Many people consider it to be junk ammo. I have found it to shoot very accurately from my pistols. I tested it against two other match loads at 25 yards from a solid rest. I fired 10 groups and I am posting the best groups. The first gun tested is my Tangfolio Limited Custom with a Vortex Razor dot
 
Tula might be very inexpensive, you can buy it online for less than 140 dollars per thousand. It more than holds its own against very expensive match ammo
 
Interesting post. I've shot a lot of steel case stuff in my lifetime in pistols and rifles and never had a problem. I do find it comical when reading different forums how people feel like they have to apologize before they mention they shot some steel case ammo.
 
I think people who don’t shoot steel are often misinformed
 
I've had only one problem with steel cased ammo...it's not something I want to reload. I still have plenty I absconded during the ammo shortage, but will be the last after I shoot it up.
 
TulAmmo burns dirty, and smells like rotten eggs, but I can load it in my CZ-75, and it runs like the proverbial sewing machine. And it's cheap, too.
 
I stopped in to a north Georgia store and purchased blazer brass for 6.99 a box, about the same price but reloadable. I haven't shot it yet but next time my wife and I go out I will try it.
I have shot steel cased ammo before and have never had a problem, I do think some is dirtier than brass either because of the powder or because the steel doesn't seal the chamber as good as brass.
