I couldn't get the extractor to work unless I used heavy force
the casing was stuck and couldn't be removed w/o excessive force
Absolutely zero issues using brass cased ammo

thoughts?
Chief, I remember reading some time ago about someone else having problems like yours with that cheap Tula junk ammo in 357 Mag. Stay away from it and buy something better or better yet, learn to reload and roll your own.

You can set yourself up to reload for not too much money and you can make whatever you want to shot, from powder puff to fireball producing screamers.
