A: Hi Austin. The Wolf WPA line up of ammo does not use any corrosive components. The primer material is non-corrosive as well.

A: Hi John. Generally speaking, ammo stored in a cool dry place will not have any issue in any regard. If you want to make sure your ammo lasts for decades when stored, you can always use a mil-spec ammo can, and toss in a bag of desiccant along with the ammo. Provided the can is not compromised, this ammo will last literally a lifetime.

As to the rust or corrosion on the casing, while it should be cleaned off, should be so much softer than the steel in your firearm, there should be no damage. My major concern would be the functioning and feeding.

A: This would not be an acceptable cartridge for self defense. This is a range grade round only.
For self defense you will want a soft point or polymer tipped round.

A: Hi James. While the Wolf lineup is loaded with bi-metallic bullets and uses cost saving steel casings, they use no corrosive components in their ammunitions! Order with confidence that you are not only honing your skills, but saving money as well!

A: Hello Jesse!
This 7.62x39 round is loaded with a lead core, bi-metal jacket projectile. The bi-metal jacket is made by layering copper and steel then pressing to together. As a result, it cannot be used at any ranges that have a restriction on projectiles containing steel.

A: Almost any round offered in 7.62x39 would be an acceptable choice for a hunting application. However, most shooters will lean towards the SP (soft point) round for hunting. Popular ammunition manufacturers offer this soft point round in 7.62x39 including Brown Bear, Tula and Wolf.
Sellier & Bellot and Prvi Partizan also make a soft point round in 7.62x39 which is loaded to a slightly higher pressure than some of the foreign brands. This higher pressure would not be considered a +P round nor is it a significant increase to be of any concern, however it could be a considered round if you are hunting at a moderate distance.

A: It sounds like you may be needing the 308 Win ammo caliber. While this 7.62x39 ammo appears similar by the numbers, the 308 Win round has a similar counterpart known as the 7.62x 51 NATO round. Generally speaking these have a lower pressure limit which means it will be safe to fire the 7.62x51 in your 308 rifle. Both of these rounds may be found under our 308 Ammo page.
This 7.62x39 round is a smaller rifle round commonly used in the AK-47 and SKS family of rifles.
