scattergun10 125 Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 I know it was the Wolf Military Classic (not WPA) for a while.Then I think it was the Tula. Is that still the case? Anybody know for sure? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JoeAK 337 Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Last time I bought Tula it had it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LuPiN8oR 333 Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) Last i checked 8m3 was in tula 124gr hp. All the 122gr ive come across didn't have the pre fail cuts but another forum member here claims they found some that did. Check out the terminal performance of 7.62x39 thread in the saiga 7.62x39 section for more details. Edited August 22, 2014 by LuPiN8oR Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jimdigriz 580 Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 (edited) Whatever you do, don't rely on Tula for self-defense. Why is that? I've had more failures with Tula than with all other types of ammo combined. It is the only ammo to fail in my Saiga 223 and Glock 19. There is also an AR 15 torture test that was done with 4 types of ammo. The Tula performance was so bad they couldn't even complete the test with one rifle. Stuck cases, failures to fire, etc. I won't buy the stuff anymore, at any price. Edited August 23, 2014 by Jim Digriz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LuPiN8oR 333 Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 I have ran at least 1k rounds of tulammo in my aks (308 and 7.62x39) without a single hiccup.their pistol and 223 ammo i cant vouch for tho. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IndyArms 10,186 Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 ok... so will someone please enlighten me about WHY I should give a fuck if my X39 ammo has an 8M3 bullet in it or not? Does it punch holes in paper better than others, meaning a true MATCH grade target bullet? Or is it an actual hunting grade bullet loaded in mil type ammo? Or ?? Seeing as how I load my own... I can tailor any load to do whats needed... and as I dont think I can buy 8M3 on their own... I am curious as to what the hoopla about them is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TARE 47 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 The 8M3 was a cheap bullet that was demonstrated to be terminally effective in a couple mediums including a hog, by a handful of people a few years back when it was loaded in wolf military classic. It was a great cheap hollowpoint that was capable of producing great wounds without spending federal premium or winchester super-x money. Many even prefer that round over the higher quality hunting stuff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
