Wolf boxer primed 45 auto

[rmcc]

A friend told me he had heard that Wolf cases were such soft steel that they should be able to be reloaded. Sized a few and they size very easy. Has anybody tried losding them?

Thanks,
Rich

I've reloaded a bunch of them, never had an issue. Still have many to load if/when.

The polymer coating will begin to deposit in the die and in the chamber after a while. May cause problems with reliability in feeding and chambering. Keep everything clean.

Honestly, of you shop around a little .45 brass is usually so cheap I wouldn't bother. I know when you are first getting started any casings look like good casings, but police up the brass at the range a couple of times and you'll have more than you'll ever reload.
