    Wolf is no longer lacquer coated. It's polymer. Looks the same, but it melts at a much higher temp. Still, I'd never shoot it in an HK- especially an MP5 or a P7. Wolf polymer will still melt in those chambers, especially if you leave one in a hot chamber. Melted polymer is a nightmare to get out of a fluted chamber.

    Thats why I said "cheap" assault rifles

    There is still, or was as of a few months ago a lot of Wolf millitary classic line still floating around gun shows that is laquer coated, along with Silver Bear, Golden Tiger and a few others. The new polymer coated cases have a dark grey color to them.

    Sorry, didn't look at the box. It is Brown Bear Ammo from Russia and it is lacquer coated. I am not shooting it in an assault rifle. Shooting it in a Ruger P89 semi auto handgun.
