AK47 - 7.62x39 ammo ~non-steel/magnetic?

[jpscoot_21]

+1 on the demilled Russian ammo that SG sells.
The bullet is non-magnetic. The case is. The entire round has a copper wash on it.

I bought 1k rounds of the demilled Russian ammo. Non-magnetic bullet steel cased copper washed. I've been through about 300 rds and 1 in 3 is a ftf. The bullet gets shoved in to the case when chambering. My converted Saiga has eaten everything without issue except for this stuff

Wow. That is a pretty bad batch. I have used those in my SKS and it worked Ok - only two FTFs in about 100 rounds. Have not tried them in AK platform yet.

golden tiger is awesome...but magnetic
im pretty sure all of the "bear" ammo by tula is non magnetic
tula brassMAXX is non magnetic, but i havent seen in 7.62
hornady is good to go but more than you wanna pay

The Bulgarian stuff from Arsenal is non-magnetic, brass cased.

I had the opposite experience, mist of a box & not a single problem through my SKS. However I read something about the feed angle for SKS are different from AKs so that might be the cause.

Yeah I had 100 rounds of that demilled ammo and only had 2 ftf. I was also shooting them out if an unconverted saiga. If only I could find some in smaller quantities. It is the cheapest way to shoot my ak at my local ranges.

[Mail Clerk]

I only go for ammo that is non steel and non-corrosive. That's why I don't shoot my AK much cuz I admit I'm picky but don't want my rifles to corrode.
