To comment on DaveR's comment that you will not save money reloading 7.62 x 39: Not necessarily true. You can buy new brass and load it one time. The cost is about equal to the cost of new Wolf ammo. No savings here. However, the Wolf is steel and not reloadable. If you buy, say, new Winchester brass and fire it once, the next time it's FREE. Then you start saving money. As long as you don't load the brass too hot you should be able to get 15 loadings out of it.
