    Well 7.62x39 dies are 7.62x39 dies no matter what the case is.

    There are 2 problems though. First is the bigger problem that Wolf cases are made from steel not brass so they do not reform as well. It is commonly said that steel can not be reloaded but I have seen some threads where people are. Reloading steel cases is not for the novice though.

    The second problem is they are Berdan primed vs Boxer like US made ammo. With Berdan primers you need a different kind of deprimer as the ones that come in you die will NOT work. Also finding the correct primers to put back in are not as common and can be hard to find.
