I am looking for ammo to purchase, since mooooooost people say Wolf isnt good.
What is a very very good priced brass cased ammo in 7.62x39 FMJ.


I am looking into getting at least 1000 rounds at first, or one of those bulk buys.
I do not want to spend more than $150.


Where am I to look?

What the hell?!?!?! Wolf isn't the good stuff?

My question to you is, what are you doing with the ammo? Target shooting? Plinking? Wolf is spendy but more then fine for an AK. AK's  shoot just about anything. I've put over 10,000 rounds of Wolf through my rifle and I have maybe had 3-4 jams. The price sucks though.

Wolf's new ammo is great. Shoot it, love it and be happy we are able to get it.

My AK eats Wolf like candy......and as another poster said, if you're AK can't take Wolf.....there's really not much to say......a POS AK?

As for my AR, IMHO, all AR's should be able to eat any type of ammo, and function correctly.

Mine .....my AR, at least feeds/loads/shoots Wolf ammo pretty well........after sorting out many problems first: polished ramps, dremeled feedramps into upper, Wolf extractor spring added, new extractor, D-Fender/O-Ring to the extractor spring, and Militec lube, and good cleaning of the gas tube, and using USGI magazines only.

Only failures i get now, are from using my USA 40rd......only as it looks really cool, but that's it!

Wolf is the shit, my man.
If the SHTF I wouldn't be shooting more than 100 yds anyway, not enough difference in accuracy outta my 20" sporter to care.

No doubt this thread wil becoming a pissing match between the Wolf users and the Wolf haters.

I've had better results with Barnaul and Brown Bear (same stuff, different box) than with wolf, but you're talking about a marginal gain in accuracy and perhaps a little more velocity if the recoil was any judge.

Both function fine in every rifle I've tried them in.  If your AK won't eat Wolf, it needs a trip back to the builder.

I have shot 1000's of rounds of wolf in multiple calibres and guns and have never had any problems, even in my Glock.  Stay off the AR boards and you will not hear this shit.

ive shot nothing but wolf through my mak90 without a single bobble running through an excess of 4000 rounds. accuracy is great - at 50 yards i can bounce a soda can all day long, never put it on paper but id say that would equate to at least 2" @ 50 yards on the bench.

I've shot Wolf out of my AKs with no problems. In fact, the only stuff I've ever fed my AR and my Mini-14 have been Wolf, and I've had zero problems.

I've also shot Silver Bear and Uly (the stuff that's suppossedly Russian Mil-Spec) and they both shoot great too.

Wolf is just fine, ESPECIALLY 7.62x39

1) The laquer and steel-case = bad arguments are BS

2) AKs were designed to run steel cased, laquered ammo, anyway..
