No issues with any Russian ammo so far after about 700 rds of Wolf and 50 or so Silver Bear through my Mini14. The only malfunction I have had was with Federal.
The only thing you might want to be aware of, is with that steel cased Wolf, it can be hard on an ejector, or so I've heard?
And as far as accuracy, as mentioned, it's not match ammo, but, I think it's safe to say you'll definitely hit what you're shooting at. And I think it'll be pretty decent. And being a good shot can only help... lol

I've had no problems with Wolf in 7.62x39 or .45 ACP. It's actually been cleaner than Magtech and relatively accurate. It does smell a little funny, but don't we all.
The major disadvantage with Wolf I've found has been the increase in price and decrease in availability.

Is it safe to shoot Russian ammo-Barnaul, Wolf, and Bear through the Mini 14? Is the ammo accurate?
What I mean is, will it damage the action or extractor pin as it does in the AR's?
Russian ammo 7.62-39 is a diameter of .310 american made 7.62-39 ammo is .308 .If you are shooting a SKS ,AK or somthing to that affect for accuracy use the Russian ammo if you are shooting the new Ruger use american made ammo if you want you rifle to last. Both ammos will shoot in either rifle to answer your question but they are not the same.
