Personally, I'd take the Chinese over the Bulgarian as Chinese has worked great in all my Mosins I've run it through and I have no experience with Bulgarian ammo.

Try a little of each before you buy a crate perhaps?
Unfortunately can't do that, it comes by the case only, I' pretty happy with the Bulgarian and $30 is $30, but I keep reading good things about the Chinese ammo.
