Default Anyone Shoot These?

Anybody shoot these things? Normally I shoot Golden Tigers or Brown Bear. However due to the incredible shortage of ammo in this country (by federal design, I suppose), I am leaning toward purchasing this particular brand. Anyone hear anything on it, pro or con?

Doesn't really matter what you put through an SKS or an AK, they'll take just about anything.

AK's and SKS's are some of the mst forgiving rifles ever invented. They seem to shoot the cheapest, dirtiest, crap ammo the best.

Send over a few hundred. I will give you a range report. Seriously, in this market if you can get them and the price doesn't hurt too bad, I think you'll be fine. Like others have said, those are "mikey rifles", they'll eat anything.

I look at it this way, my AK lives a pampered life. It's locked away. Its climate is controlled. It's clean 100% of the time. It's lubed with the latest and greatest products. It's never dropped or scratched, in fact, it's straight up loved...but you know what? It probably longs to be dirty and shoot crappy white box ammo.
