I have put this through my AK and will continue putting it through my AK. But as well know the AK was designed to last through hell and high water.

But i will never trust it going through any of my ARs. I have a box of 500 for 5.56 but i dont plan on ever using it unless its the only ammo i have left. In the end, ANY ammo will be better than NO ammo. I'll give it that much credit, lol

I shoot it all the time. Some in-door ranges won't let you shoot it, so check before you spend your money.
It's filthy ammo and I would recommend a thorough cleaning after you hit the range.

thanks for the response guys.i dont plan on sticking with this particular ammo,but for now it will do. i have only fired half a box of this thru my rifle,but will give it a good cleaning as advised.
i have my own shooting range at home so no need to worry about what ammo i can or cant shoot

Boudin, you can search all day and night ont he Wolf/WPA ammo, and you will find some who do not want to believe in it, and then you will find those of us who shoot thousands and thousands of them thru our rifles annually, with no issues.
If the case is teflon coated, you are likely not going to have any issues with it at all.
My Sport has about 10,000 Wolf/WPA thru it, and it is doing just fine.
