• Q: Thinking about buying this rifle. Can we use steel cased ammo in this?

  • Answered
  • Asked 11/06/2021 14:34 by Bradford S

  A:

  I'm sure shooting some from time to time won't hurt anything but I try to stay away from steel cased ammo in any firearm. Most steel cased ammo has a bimetal jacket projectile Wich means there's steel in the bullet/projectiles jacket wich can wear on the barrel much quicker than brass. Know plenty of people shoot steel threw these, it can just wear parts or even break parts quicker. Hope this helps.

  A:

  You can use a picatinny rail. Actually, the receiver is drilled and tapped for mounting the included picatinny rail. So no need to spend extra money. Enjoy.
