MG42 7.62x39 Conversion Ammo

I have an MG42 with the Lewman Arms 7.62x39 conversion kit installed.   Highly recommend the conversion, it makes the gun very pleasant to shoot from a bipod.  

It has been running great on the Barnaul lacquer coated, steel cased ammo.  I found that the conversion kit can be a bit finicky when it comes to ammo choice.  I the kit's defense, 7.62x39 ammo can be all over the map as far as quality and standardization.  Starting to run low on my stock of the Barnaul ammo and of course it is hard to find these days.  Before I go shopping for a pile of replacement ammo, wondering if anyone else has had any experience on what 7.62x39 brand or source that runs well with the conversion.

Thanks in advance,

 

Rudy
