Some AK's I've heard have had issues with HP's. However most don't. Try a few boxes out and see if your ammo, mags and rifle work together well.

Some of the Chinese AKs do not have a slight beveled "feed ramp" at the bottom of the chamber face. I had a MAK 90 like this and it would not feed HP reliably. I found instructions on the 'net on how to use a dremel tool to put a bevel in and it cured the feed problem. All of my other AKs have this bevel right from the factory.

Soft points should work fine...I have shot tons of it.
JHP's may give you some issues but after shooting a few you should know. Its the flat tip (very small flat tip but it is flat) that causes the issue. A friend of mine had an SKS that just would not load a JHP at all. |

My Sam7 eats everything I feed it. HP, SP, FMJ, etc. Reliable is its middle name.

The only round ive ever seen hang up a bit is PPU soft point round nose. Its an odd duck for 7.62x39 ammo. It seems to sheer a bit of the exposed lead in my veprs and saigas if you ride the carrier home. If you just yank the carrier and let it slam hone the rounds chamber fine. And that would only be an issue first shot thru a mag. The rest would obviously cycle when the gun is fired.
