So what's the deal with sealed pistol cans these days? I can't imagine the insides of a Wolfman or Omega after 3-4k rounds thru it - especially subs. My Octane 45 ends up caked with piles of gunk after a day of 147s and 158s 9mm....

Which brand 147 and 158s are you shooting?
I just found some Fiocchi 158s. Are they real dirty?

Just run a couple of 308's thru it to clean it out. 
Make sure to video it also.this

On a more serious note, I've not really seen much build up in my can unless I run it wet. That is a mess to clean. I normally shoot subs also.
147s - pretty much anything but i prefer Southern Munitions, PPU, Sig Sauer, and Aguila.
158s - PPU and Fiocchi exclusively
really? 1500-2000 rounds of sub 9 and my Octane 45HD is as almost as nasty as my ARC22 after 500 rounds.... and i dont ever shoot wet.
Both PPU and Fiocchi 158s are like unicorns. Extremely hard to find.
sorry, i didnt answer your question in my other post... i cant tell any different in how dirty there are compared to quality 147s. i dont use Fiocchi 147s, so i cant compare against them - i had nosediving issues with a few guns.
Federal, Winchester, and AE 147s are SUPER nasty, darn near 22lr level nasty - not to mention some of them like to nosedive under a faster rate of fire.
I’ve always wondered this myself. The amount of crud collected in the baffles is substantial after a couple thousand rounds.
yep, in my experience pistol cans get packed with gunk
