not sure about the 223 but as far as the 7.62x39 goes the classic doesnt seem to have the slicker green casing as the regular wolf. It has the plain steel look. I personally think they are harder to load in a high cap clip because of the finish It may just be me but the green looking finish is easier. Me and a couple other guys from work went in together and bought 1000 rds of the wolf I thought they where going to be the traditional but ended up being classic. still was a good deal at 3.00 a box 0 -

Just FYI, Wolf IS subcontracting its ammo! I bought a case and a half of Wolf Military Classic (HP and FMJ mix), and it has Ulyanovsk headstamp, a circle with 2 arrows. It is new production, camo-colored boxes.
I've heard that Ulyanovsk ammo was better than TCW, we'll see.
Camo-boxed ammo is made in Ulyanovsk, another city in Russia. Construction is similar, but execution is much better. Powder charges are more consistent+different powder (different smell and cleaner burning)-->more consistent point of impact, more accurate. It also seems to be loaded to higher velocities than TCW ammo. The air pocket on a bullet looks bigger--more yawing when it hits a soft target. Cases are coated with regular East Bloc green laquer. They work great in AKs, that's what the rifle was designed to shoot.
