I used to think it was fine for practice ammo too.

I had a Wolf fail to extract the other day because it was gummed up in the chamber. tried several times to get it out finally had to use a cleaning rod and tap it out. Chamber was pretty well carbon'd up.
Looking at the case there is a shiny steel spot where my extractor was forced to ride over the rim as I tried to extract it manually - wonder what kind of wear it did to the edge of my extractor? When I got the case out I can see a lot of some brown deposit down by the extractor groove and head, it looks like when paint or other liquid runs, pools and dries. could this be the fabled coating that gums up one's works?

You do what you want...no more Wolf for me.
