Hello all.
With ammo costing as much as it does I am using Wolf .223 Remington in my Mini-14.
I have shot about 60 rounds of Wolf in it so far and no problems.
I have been reading on here and various other forums that using steel cased ammo can damage the extractor mechanism.
I have read the Mini-14 manual cover to cover and nowhere can I find the manual stating that you cannot shoot steel cased ammo.
Ruger states to use only factory loaded sporting cartridges manufactured in accordance with US industry practice. They do not recommend reloads.
