  • 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.

    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.

  • 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.

  • JtAlmond said:

    I almost ordered these by mistake. I have a stash of the POINTED Soft point PSP that I run with excellent results out of my Maadi. The AK was designed to run spire pointed rounds which is correctly the PSP version of the PPU ammo. Round nose is a safety feature geared toward lever guns tubular magazines think 30-30 Winch or old tech 30-40 Krag. All of what I shot fed fired and ejected without complaint. Accuracy is acceptable.

  • 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

  • JtAlmond said:

    I have the 125 SP loading for my Madi. It kicks a bit harder than a lot of other stuff and it does massive damage on medium sized game animals.

  • 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.

  • 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!!

  • BB said:

    This ammo fired consistently accurate groups out of my KR 103. It came in a nice packaging with a plastic bullet holder that will be useful for reloading, and all at a decent price. I recommend it and will be buying more.

  • Al G said:

    Shot great groups. No misfires. Will buy more

  • CHIEF said:

    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.

  • 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.

  • Gregory said:

    ships fast and runs great

  • 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.

  • Matthew said:

    Best prices and fastest shipping around. Thanks guys!

  • Andrew said:

    The Wolf 125 gr SP is very effective on deer and hogs. Accurate and performs well in harvests within 100 yards, according to my experience. No feeding or failure to fire issues encountered when used in BCA 7.62x39 AR platforms. Same trouble free operation and effectiveness in PSA, VSKA types as well. Great choice for hunting.

  • James Bond Bennett said:

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

  • 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.

  • BigD said:

    This ammo is waaaaayyyy overpriced

  • derek said:

    loaded the magazine and it wouldnt cycle a single round. not sure if it the metal or what but bought some local and had no issue

  • scott said:

    Exact same as the steel case sst. They put it in brass, changed the name and charged 3x the price

  • AX said:

    Ran it through my ZPAP M70. Shot pretty tight at 75 Yards.(2.5 inch grouping with Sig optic) Pleasantly surprised with the performance for the value. I give it a 4.5 out of 5.

  • Davazi said:

    Great ammo, good price, good shipping time

  • Tim said:

    Value, quality, and performance all exceeded my expectations as I was hesitant on ordering. No problems or hiccups whatsoever. Will absolutely be ordering again in the near future.

  • JJ said:

    I like PMC Ammo for most of my calibers. Wish the price was lower.

  • Ed said:

    Good ammo , shoots well with no problems, on the target where i aim at 50 yards, shooting out of my galil pistol. Shipping was fast and a good price.

  • :-) said:

    this ammo (for me) allows tighter groups from 50 to 100 yards at the range.

  • Joel said:

    I shoot at range only 40 rounds. And they all go really good. From a resolute mk47 CMMG

  • MHarris said:

    Consistent, accurate, and clean burning in my AK. Very happy with performance and I will purchase more.

  • Jacob said:

    Zero issues with this stuff. I only shoot brass and this is a great deal. Clean and smooth.

  • Gern Blanston said:

    Nearly every round would stick in the chamber not allowing the bolt to fully close. Other brands of 7.62 ran fine but Bellom ammo was a disappointment

  • Bill said:

    Mixed it up with some steel cased stuff I had so every other round in 30 round mag ran perfectly

  • [email protected] said:

    Great price and great shooting ammo. No FTF's or FTE's on my Galil ACE 7.62x39

  • 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.

    I was unsure about ordering ammo online and having it shipped to my house but this process was very easy and simple. Absolutely no issues getting my order delivered and the ammo has been running smoothly through my rifle. I definitely recommend coming here to get what you need.
