What is the differences between wolf military classic, wolf polyformance, wolf black box, wolf camo box, golden tiger, brown bear, silver bear, etc. Not a fan of Tula 223 so, I wont shoot 7.62x39 Tula in this gun either.

They can be broken up by manufacturers
Vympel
-golden tiger. Pretty decent mil spec type stuff. Lacquered and sealed. Guys like this a lot for storage, and is mostly what I buy for stacking. I haven’t seen it in anything but FMJ
Barnaul- makes the bears and wolf. Comes in FMJ, HP, and SP. their HP’s tend to act like FMJ
Brown bear- lacquered steel
Silver bear- zinc coated steel, kind of “dusty” to the touch. I like it in SP for shooting vermin
Golden bear- copper coated steel
Wolf camo box/ military classic- polymer coated steel. It’s okay but won’t resist moisture as well
Wolf black box- old school wolf with lacquer coating/sealed
Tula- makes Tula. It’s really not that bad for AK’s, and their 8M3 load is supposed to be a decent defensive round. It is all polymer coated steel
Red Army Standard- used to be made in ukraine but they got blown up or equipment stolen in the current war. I used it some but it wasn’t spectacular. I’ve seen it around recently and think it’s made somewhere in Russia now
