Stick to brass or nickle. It may be tempting to buy the steel because it's cheaper, but DO NOT, you will regret it.

If you buy an AK, it doesn't matter, anything will cycle through those things.

On a side note, the price of ammo has gone through the fricken roof out there. If you can find it at all, in most cases, it has at a minimum, doubled, in most cases tripled or more. Here is one example and it's for garbage, sure to jam your AR steel. https://www.bulkammo.com/1000-rounds...-wolf-55gr-fmj

I was in Cabela's a few minutes ago getting some fishing stuff and out of curiosity, wondered over to the ammo section. Their entire ammo section was cleaned out with the exception of some exotic rifle rounds and some 12 gauge. The best way I can think to describe it is, it looked like the grocery store toilet paper section after the rona first started.

I have sources where you can still get it (AK and AR) but you are going to take a beating in the wallet if you need it.
Hmm. I specifically got an AK because it can shoot that shitty steel ammo, which is all I've got and all I've ever run through it, with no issues. It's always been my understanding that AKs, despite being cheaply made, are like garbage disposals when it comes to ammo.
