Someone gave me a couple hundred rounds
Anything I need to worry about shooting this?
Gun is a Savage 110FP-LE

I personally wouldn't put it through a nice rifle like that.

I DO shoot it, but through an AK pattern rifle, a Yugo M77 - but AK's gobble up that cheap steel case stuff.

My experience with steel case ammo through a bolt action rifle is sticky extraction. It's also a lot dirtier than most ammo. Maybe list it on your local back page or on this forum for local sale, you should be able to get 40 cents a round for it - then take the money and go on SGAmmo.com and get some decent brass cased ammo for your nice bolt gun.

Just my $0.02

My little brother and I were out shooting a couple years ago and he had trouble with steel case in his savage .308 newer model. I believe it was brown bear and I recall them not liking his tight chamber. We pulled them down and reloaded into brass cases.

Thanks, I was really wondering about this stuff
It's definitely not the stuff I usually shoot.
