Planning on heading to the range with my new Predator Pursuit upper and RRA lower. I have called up some local shops but none have offered any good information. Is it alright to fire Wolf ammo right off the bat or should I shoot a few boxes of higher quality ammo through it first?

My buddy had some problems with the Wolf ammo in his Bushmaster early on, but after about 500 rds of nicer ammo, the problems went away.


Note: If this question is common let me know and I will try to search around some more.

Thanks.

Make sure that the bolt carrier group is well lubed (with CLP or similar)
There is debate back and forth about Barrel Break In.

My predator upper had issues off the bat with wolf. I only had about 100 rounds of black hills blue box through it at that point. I haven't tried wolf again just yet but I believe that there should be no problems. I've shot about 1,500 rnds at this point of reloads (yeah I shoot a lot, I know.) BTW that upper is the cat's tits.

As for the upper being "cat's tits", that's what I keep being told. Hopefully I can get to the range this weekend and find out for myself.
