What kind of 7.62x39 round does /k/ like? I am looking to buy some bulk ammo online and have only tried tulammo. Do these rounds have a negligible difference unless I pay a dollar a shot?

tulas the worst new production ammo, if your gun eats tula congrats it can eat anything. theres a decent step up in consistency with anything else.

As far as what functions, my Polish kit eats everything short of literal fecal matter.
However accuracy wise I've yet to get anything but RAS to turn anything more than MOA of say, 1' or worse.
But that's just shitty manufacture and not having a zeroing tool.

That's good to know. I was thinking about ordering 500 rounds of brown bear from sportsman's guide. And the tulammo was being shot out of my yugo sks. I did have maybe 3 failures to fire out of 300 rounds and 2 of them were because the bolt wasn't going all the way forward (fixed now not the ammo's fault).

I should add that its even cheaper than sportsmans guide, so its a no brainer, youre welcome OP
can't remember which, tulammo or wolf, but one brand shat its red primer seals all over the inside of my AK last time I used it
was a bitch to clean out
find some cheap surplus METAK crates they dig out of a trench in east europe every so often, much better stuff
tula is just fine, you could mix it in a bucket of wpa, wolf, and red army standard and you probably couldn't tell the difference
also if your AK can't eat tulammo you need a new AK

I'll only touch golden tiger.
>Do these rounds have a negligible difference unless I pay a dollar a shot?
No. But it still doesn't hurt to find out exactly what your rifle likes best. Test different stuff.
>lacquer coating superior to polymer for storage and rust prevention
>sealed from the elements at both bullet/primer ends for max possible storage life, plus the superior lacquer coating
>very consistent velocities for cheap steelcase(online tests I've seen)
>actually reaches advertized velocities from 16in barrels(look for MAC's chronograph test on youtube, wolf was clocking in 300fps slower) I can't speak for bear/tula etc off the top of my head, but I know I've seen tests on youtube on how they do on different barrel lengths
>large air pocket in front of bullet, and it yaws very fast and stays that way from what I've seen
>longer bullet than a lot of others, so yaw is more effective since more surface area
>bullet shape offers better ballistic coefficient, so it decelleratres more slowly in flight
>GT has very little to no muzzle flash from even a 16in barrel
>it's noticeably more accurate for me

I use brown bear very often.

GT isn't as good as people make it out to be, it's a meme.
What about these memesters? I ordered a thousand for a beater I picked up.

Until you shoot a living critter with it and it's yawing potential becomes obvious.
>>33876995
Depends what your looking for. Rob Ski is doing chrono tests on various ammo brands. Golden Tiger has upper end velocity but the loads arent consisitant. Turns out Brown bear is consistant by combloc standards, but it slower.

According to the doppler, it sucks, bad. If you are shooting for groups this stuff will frustrate you. If your banging steel targets and cardboard bad guys you may not notice.

Noice. Perfect, then.

Whats the lacquer coating like? Is it ok for use in stripper clips?
>>33877906
It's just smooth almost like a tempered glass phone screen. IDK why it'd matter for stripper clips vs anything else.
It'll wear off from the stripper clip if you practice with the same set of 10rds a ton of times like I did when I got my first 762x39 clip fed gun, but it takes a lot. I repeated till I felt that I was an expert at it. Plus, I wasn't able to shoot at the time, so that was my main interaction with my gun, practicing that for hours.
