Whats the verdict on the quality of silver/golden bear or wolf gold ammo?
The verdict is dependant on what you need the ammunition to do.
As avboiler said, if it is 2 MOA ammo, that is total sh&# performance for some things. But for banging steel in R&G matches or plinking at 50 and 100 yards...well, who cares?
Wolf Military Classic 62gr HP I can get 1 moa at 100yds on some groups. Usually it's 1.5 moa at 100yds. For $4 a box I can't see why I would buy anything else.
I have a 1/8 twist barrel.
I have yet to use 223 in my AR and have only shot 5.56. Anyone have opinions on whats better?
Wolf Gold is my go-to for cheap AR fun. Reasonably accurate, better than M193 and way better than M855; close to 5.56 velocity; and actually has decent terminal performance for FMJ.
How many shots in those groups and what kind of rifle? Everything I've seen about it says its at best 2-3 MOA ammo.
5 shot groups. Usually there are 4 shots in 0.75" groups one seems to fly out to around 1.5" for me. I have a pictures but not sure how to upload them to internet and put on here. I have an Anderson 16" 1/8 twist barrel.
All mine (Bushmasters) do sub MOA with American Made Ammo. Never would feed it Russian or some other foreign stuff.

My latest 5 shot group. 100 yards.
Don't try to read the writing i need a translator for my own writing lol.
If it works, and it should. The 5.56 is made to cycle on the higher pressure ammo. And a 223 in the bigger 5.56 chamber can lose inertia and reduce accuracy.

That's mighty good! Guess you got lucky and got one that likes cheap ammo! Mine barely does that with expensive ammo.
And your writing isn't really any worse than mine. I can't read it either.
Even M193 and M855?
