I shot 250 rounds of the Wolf steel cased 115 grain ammo through my shooter s/42 1938 pistol. It functioned flawlessly and off the bench at 25 yds had 7 out of 10 rounds touching each other. I thought this was a great ammo/pistol combination. I don't understand why a steel case would be harder on a chamber? I assume the case just expanded and gripped the walls to prevent gas leakage. If I'm wrong please let me know.
