Application / Regulation advice Norinco 7.62x39 red box accuracy?

Good day, what has been others experience with this ammo and it's accuracy out of an sks? My experience has been poor with an average group of about 4 inches at 50 meters. I can have 2 rounds next to each other , then the third 4 inches away. Flyers are quite common as well. Not sure if it's the ammo or rifle. (French tickler).

I got flak on here before for saying this, but please please check your SKS after shooting this stuff.

I didn't because "its non-corrosive". The whole gas system was rusted up. Never once shot anything else but that from it. I suspect not entirely 100% have the non-corrosive primers.
