Customer Reviews

  • Jared said:

    Very good ammo, the price wasn’t too bad either and delivery was fast but as soon as I got mine, box was open and missing about 5 bullets. Wish it was transported better or packaged better but still got it I suppose.

  • Jason said:

    I’ve already shot all one thousand rounds without a single fail to fire or fail to eject. This ammo works and is cost effective. I will definitely be purchasing more. Highly recommend.

  • EP said:

    Ran about 350 rounds through flawlessly. Perfect performance. Very happy with the price and service, delivery was way faster than I expected.

  • Larry said:

    Would buy again. Performed very well. Great Seller. Fast ship. Thanks again.

  • John said:

    Ammo works perfectly! Good value and Thanks!

  • Bruce said:

    I have run hundreds of rounds and love this ammo, I love cleaning my aks Ammo.com is the only place I buy bulk ammo and I tell all my friends and groups about them

  • Slick said:

    Really good deal on this ammo, shoots great, not, I repeat not a dirty ammo which surprised me for it being so cheap. I bought the 1000 round deal, and as soon as I get my Christmas shopping done I'm going to buy 2000 more rounds of it.

  • Bruce said:

    Ive cycled hundreds of rounds without a fail with my Arsenal 101S, I love cleaning my weapon for those who complain about dirty ammo, I have recommended AMMO.Com to all my friends and in the Gun groups I'm in, Thanks, Bruce

  • JOhn said:

    Lots of FTF's...choose something else

  • Raizen Kane said:

    I have a Chinese type 56 (SKS copy). TulAmmo is about all I fire out of it. It's inexpensive, powerful, and all around a good buy. The one drawback to it is the fact that steel cased Russian ammo is dirty after the shots go off. I had to spend about an hour cleaning the powder residue and metal fouling from my rifle. But I wouldn't trade that for nothing. Thanks Russia!! You make such great things.

  • SGriffithUSMC said:

    Fired 200 rounds pretty quickly through my AK. Not a single misfire or cookoff. With the sky rocketing ammo prices lately I definelty got a really good deal

  • tiki said:

    thank you ammo.com you have been great and on time in rough times

  • Matt said:

    I have been using this ammo for over a year in my AK and I have never had a problem. It is fantastic ammo for target shooting. I have yet to encounter a misfire or any problems and I have gone through thousands of rounds.

  • KAWAKID said:

    Great ammo. I've shot over 400 rounds and never had a misfire.

  • Wattah said:

    Nice and easy to use

  • TM said:

    Just use it on the range, fun to shoot, we waste it on rapid fire and its great, no problems. It can be somewhat dirty but hey, thats what gun scrub spray is for and spray on oils,,,,great ammo for the price..

  • larrytbull said:

    Worked great in my mak90> only wish prices were like back 6 months ago

  • markitalynn said:

    Never jammed, was not as dirty as I have been told, and was just alot of fun to shoot. (Also pretty darn accurate for being in an old SKS!)

  • Jeff said:

    I had no problems shooting 75 rounds in my AMD-65.

  • Glam said:

    This ammo is good no jams or weak bullets

  • Justin said:

    I had read the comment below me that the ammo wasn’t good and “reliable” truth be told all of my ammo shot Nicely and I had no jams. Good ammo

  • Mutant Operator said:

    I don't have high standards for steel case 7.62x39, all I ask is that it goes bang. This stuff does not. I purchased 2000 rounds of which I have so far fired about 200. Roughly 10% of them were duds. This is not an exaggeration, I had on average 3 duds in every 30 round magazine. It isn't my weapon's fault (CMMG MK47 Mutant), every round had a solid primer strike. I have previously run thousands of rounds of everything from Tula to subsonic Brown Bear to Romanian surplus without a single mishap. One more thing to note is that the cases are marked as "Tulammo." You can even see it in the photograph on the site here. This makes me suspect it of being reloaded steel case, though I could be mistaken. Regardless, this is unreliable and you shouldn't waste your money.

  • Michael said:

    Used it in my AK and SKS. Works like a charm, would buy again.

  • Sam said:

    Ammo arrived in very professional packaging and when I took it out shooting it shot flawlessly

  • deadeye45 said:

    Nothing negative to say..goes bang every time, great price and got it fast and it was christmas week like I said no cons

  • Smurf said:

    Great. Affordable.

  • Big John said:

    This is not the first 1000 rounds I've bought of this ammo. Never had a misfire, fairly clean burn and accurate. I'll be back for more when this is gone.

  • Scott2333 said:

    A++++++++

  • Jimbillyjoebob said:

    I feed this ammo to my AK on a regular basis and it never has choked on it yet. It is not the cleanest burning, but for the money you can't beat it.

  • Chris said:

    Great value! Good ammo, no misfires at all.

  • TB said:

    So far so good. I've shot at least three hundred rounds so far, and through my Windham Weaponry AR, no jams or misfires.

  • beth said:

    I have shot about 100 rounds of this lot but have shot 1000s of this ammo with not one bad round they all went bang. as for the customer service at ammo.com and the fast shipping i will be using them again highly recommend.

  • Alexix said:

    Works great had only one round not fire out of 500, down to my last 200. I ordered 1000. I waited 15 seconds then ejected the round checked it out, the pin did strike the primer put the round in another old AK and it shot. Was able to get under 2" groupings with scope but 4" groupings with iron sights at 100 meters out.

  • Muzzle Energy said:

    Great stuff. Wolf always works great in AK/SKS platforms and have never had a problem. The only draw-back is that its not reloadable. The only reason I put two stars on "value" is because of the skyrocketing price of ammo lately. That's not Ammo.com's fault, just supply and demand. Hopefully the prices come back down soon.

  • Maelstrom3of2 said:

    I only had a couple issues with this ammo, but the problems are most likely to do with an experiment I'm undertaking. I HAVE NOT cleaned my AK in a long time to test different ammo performance under absurd conditions. I've found that the polymer coated ammo does not run as good as the zinc coated ammo, when NO LUBRICATION IS USED, and carbon build up has been allowed in the receiver. Bear in mind if your AK or SKS is cleaned an oiled I'm sure you wont have any issue.

  • Harry said:

    would not jam in a AR47 or AK47 great ammo need more plz....

  • b said:

    Not much to say. 500 rds..through my sks. 2 FTE''s reasonably priced,came in 3 days,and I can shoot at the local range. Great ammo..great service...Thanks!!

  • Darren said:

    This is the most accurate ammo that I have ever used. I have been using this ammo in my SKS's for years. It's the best !!!

  • John said:

    This is sealed ammo and Boat tail. wolf isnt. better accuracy. tula isnt as good either. Golden is the best money can buy. John

  • Bruce said:

    You guys are fast and the ammo price is the best, never had a round to fail, I'm a pleased customer!

  • Jack said:

    I tried out a box or two of Tulamo prior to my purchase from you. It works really well in my newly purchased Ruger Mini 30. After sighting in the Ruger it would consistantly blow the center out of a bullseye target at 50 yards. That's what I really wanted it to do.

  • Zman10915 said:

    Having purchased nearly a case of this ammo at a local retailer in Boise, I have run this ammunition through a couple of weapons, both of which couldn't be any more different in nature and operation, only to find out that this round, which resembles a "mini 30-30 or 32 win " can only be best described as the best ammunition I have used commercially produced to date. It feeds very well, with NO hangups, no ejection malfunctions and quite frankly- very smooth,-even in a comparison to any other spire tip traditional "AK-47" round to date. This ammunition has not yet been analyzed for speed, etc as I did not take a chronograph with me when shooting this ammunition. I would recommend anybody that owns a firearm that is chambered for this round to try it. Very nice, indeed.

  • Jim said:

    It worked perfectly in my Yugo sks, cycled and ejected with no problems,military grade ammo

  • mwcox said:

    For years Barnaul has made the best and most consistant ammo for 7.62X39 you could buy. Brown Bear, Silver Bear and Golden Bear are the best you can buy and produce 1 MOA in my homebuilt AK rifles. Buy it with confidence. It is the best.

  • Sike said:

    No misfires everything worked well about 150 rounds

  • ratso said:

    I have used this ammo for about ten years now hunting whitetails. I have dropped 220lb bucks with one shot kills. This year dropped a nice 8 point at 225 yrds. with 123grn sp wolf steel case out of a 16" POF Ar.p. so much for those who think 762x39 isnt a very good deer round and so much for people who think wolf steel case ammo is not very good!

  • Bubba said:

    You can not go wrong getting product from this company. Had got my order in 2 days. Would recommend to everyone.

  • JessT1993 said:

    I used to buy tula ammo fequently. I don't whats gotten into them lately but lately the ammo quality I have recieved sucks. I used to run tula through both my ak in 7.62x39 and then 9x18 in my makarov. 9x18 still works great but for some reason the 7.62x39 has preformed terribly lately and I won't buy tula ammunition ever again because ive lost all confiedence in this ammunition. Lately after running tula through my ak after every 2 or 3 rounds I expierence a failure to fire. The ammo is clearly pressed on the primer where the firing pin has struck but still it doesn't shoot and simular ammo such as wolf or brown bear functions flawlessly through my rifle. So I don't believe its the rifle but the ammo its self and I will not purchase from tula again of this is the quality I can't expect.

  • hawk said:

    Although I only had time to shoot 50 rounds selected at random from various boxes, every round fired true with minute of accuracy after sight in-house

  • Ryan said:

    just got a Russian SKS and have put 2000rds of Tula Ammo through it with absolutely no problems at all.

  • Richard said:

    This ammo is garbage, casing expands and jams inside the barrel/ bcg. It's almost a scam, this trash shouldn't even be called ammo. Such a waste of money. Now I have a 1,000 rounds of useless trash.

  • Valdez said:

    I have used the brand in the past and it still is a good shell. I just shoot at targets but I have to admit I keep a good supply because I don't trust our government. I have worked for the government for 28 years so I have a reason to know.

  • BRUCE said:

    Good ammunition. Feeds, fires and ejects without any problems. Accuracy good out to 300 yds. Sealed and coated casings are good for long term storage. I will purchase more in the future.

  • TomInJax said:

    At the range, I was able to produce nice clean 2 inch groups without a stand or brace. Never had one misfire. TulAmmo seems to have a reputation for making dirty ammo, but the rifle was easy to clean with much less residue than I expected. I will be ordering more! (Don't tell my wife!)

  • Assocks said:

    Cycled 200 straight in a chinese sks did not jam nor misfire once

  • M60Gunnr said:

    I've never been satisfied with the accuracy of my SKS. I know it's limitations, yet I thought we could do better. We just did. The Silver Bear ammo consistently grouped tighter and closer to my point of aim than the Tula or Wolf ammo. It's not as easy to find as the other Russian ammo, and usually costs a buck or two more per box. Take the time and spend the extra money. IMHO, the only step up is the expensive "match rounds" (i.e. Winchester). That'll get you a marginal increase in accuracy for double the cost. The Bear line, made in the Barnaul plant, is simply the best choice.

  • Michael Anthony said:

    if you have an AK just shoot the lacquered stuff.. if you have an AR this is the best stuff i've seen besides american brass. very clean and easy on your carbine the metal is softer than milspec receivers and much much softer than your barrel. this is actually true with most steel cased ammo however this hasn't even scratched the finish on the receiver after 180 rounds that ran flawlessly on an AR15 pistol chambered in 7.62x39.

  • Neil said:

    Tested 40 rounds in a Mini-30, no feeding issues, all fired nicely. At least hit a target at 50 yards. Was looking for feeding issues mainly. Had 70% failure rate with TULA stuff. BB was perfect 100%. Price was decent in these times and great delivery time from ammo.com.

  • solar cowboy said:

    this is very accurate and consistent ammo. At 100 yards with my cmmg 16 " barrel they kept marking the same spot.

  • chiraq said:

    super fast delivery great customer service

  • tmmomma said:

    Easy to order and service and shipping was good.

  • Silverain1 said:

    Excellent ammo at a tremendous price. I will continue to buy it and buy it here!

  • Country said:

    Don't get for AR in 7.62 HP`s do not cycle unless you give the feed channel where the lower meets the barrels chamber a little attention a file and sand paper did the trick after about 10 freaking hrs =( I gave 4 stars on quality cause I hate steel but oh well just shtf backup ammo I planned on storing Ty Ammo Dot net for speedy service o7

  • Doom slayer said:

    Bought this ammo a few months ago, shot about 200 rounds of it so far with no stoppages. Over all im happy with this tulammo.

  • Tripod said:

    So far I have shot 2 boxs, all rounds fired, grouping was O.K. for cheap ammo. Planning to buy more.

  • Cingetor said:

    I've fired around 200 rounds of this ammo now through a Draco mini and have had no problems at all - just load, point, and shoot. Good, sturdy, light infantry bullet. Will definitely continue using it.

  • James Bond Bennett said:

    Great value for money ! Same quality you find in a more expensive round.

  • Bennie said:

    Minor problems with jamming, but overall, it performs very well.

  • Glen said:

    I need all brass to practice at my local indoor range & not much to pick from at an affordable price range so I took a shot with this & it worked perfectly in my Palmetto state armory ak47 with a magpul pmag.

  • XXX said:

    I use this ammo for my AK. Overall I am very happy with it. Good ammo at a good price.

  • jerry said:

    works fine in my 2 ak47s. never any jams

  • James said:

    Good ammo.. I've shot thousands of rounds of wolf ammo through my Ak no issues

  • rockman42 said:

    I went to the range to try out my new AK47. The ammo was what I had expected every round fired fine. The biggest problem is that ammo has become very expensive. I very conscious of how much I will shoot.

  • domstang1 said:

    I do not have misfires with my Ruger Mini 30 and American ammo. I have fired 120 rounds of Tula so far from my Ruger Mini 30. Four (4) boxes had two (2) misfires each. Two (2) boxes had one (1) misfire each . There should not be any misfires. This ammo could cost someone their life one day.

  • andy said:

    ok

  • JCS said:

    I've shot roughly 100 plus rounds through my mini-30 and have had no performance issues. Wish it were cheaper, but will save the brass for reloading. Will order again when needed.

  • Peezy said:

    Everything ran clear no jams and doesn’t dirty up my ar-15. Worth a buy will be buying more soon.

  • Keddrick said:

    Great Ammo.

  • Justis said:

    Excellent rounds imo. Shot true, didn't have any issues both with the ammo and how it performed in my weapon. Took down a 100lb hog with ease from 50yds.

  • Brysterman said:

    Very reliable ammo, burns clean and consistent velocity.... nice brass casings and you can't beat the price.. its cheaper than reloading... for accurate and hunting rounds is the only viable reason for reloading, unless you love doing it !! then go for it !

  • Ivan said:

    Bullet goes bang. Bangs well. 10/10 would recommend.

  • marty said:

    outstanding brass ammo. Takes third world ak to at least oh about 1.5. Modern ammo makes the difference.

  • Gun man said:

    Used on my AR platform great ammo

  • Ras111 said:

    So far seems pretty good. Definitely puts out a lot of smoke when shooting though. But at this point I’m just happy to have some brass case 7.62x39 ammo.. Shooting an Wasr 10 circa 2020... with no issues so far.

    Fired 500 rounds without a hick-up. Was very clean ammo that left little fowling in my AK-47. Have already ordered another 500 rounds for future range time.

  • Bosscott said:

    I bought 7 boxes of this ammo, and was surprised with the quick shipping. This ammo groups much better than the cheap foreign imported steel cased ammo.
