I'm picking up my mini 30 tomorrow. I have 2 boxes of Tula and some Golden Bear. I plan on testing several brands but Tula seems to be the easiest to get around me. What are you Mini 30 guys running in yours? If you have something good, where are you buying it?
I heard of issues with light primer strikes with the Russian stiff.
I appreciate any info you could provide.

My Mini-30 only has trouble with hollow points, they catch on the breach face.

Works fine with soft point and fmj, steel or brass case makes no difference.

Some 7.62 x 39 are .308, some are .311, not much difference in accuracy in my rifle.

Thanks to the advice of you Mini-30 shooters I bought SP instead of HP ammo from Sportsman Guild recently. 240 rounds of Tula 123 gr SP and 120 rounds of Golden Bear SP. All shot well, if a bit dirtly. As long as it hits what i aim at without misfires etc I am happy.
