How does this stuff perform in an AR15? MFS is the manufacturer of this particular ammo i'm looking at. Iv'e fired MFS ammo in other calibers and it performed flawlessly. That was brass cased though.
Iv'e also used american made zinc plated ammo and it performed as it should in other calibers.
Has anyone shot the MFS brand zinc plated here? And what were the results. Thanks.
Mike.

Haven't tried MFS.

I forget what Silver Bear plates it's steel case ammo with. Maybe zinc, anywho back during the AW ban I ran an all steel cased ammo and no cleaning test on a non-chrome lined Rock River LAR-15 mid length.

Made it through 3k of poly & laquer coated Wolf with no problems. The gun finally choked on Silver Bear.

Been shooting brass cased PMC lately.
