I had a question about the russian surplus ammo in 5.45. Is all the surplus russian ammo in 5.45 the 7n6 bullet? I ordered some through sportsman guide yesterday. They had free shipping and got 1080 rounds delivered for 135.00.

If what is pictured on their site is what you receive, its not Russian ammo. Take a look at the number 10 inside of 2 semi-circles located slightly left of the middle of the spam can. I believe that indicates Bulgarian 5.45

Just my .02

I really dont know what it is. Seemed like a good deal with the free shipping. It was an email offer the other day for 135 with free shipping for 1080 rounds

$135 for 1,080rds is a hell of a deal. I would jump on it myself had I not already picked up a couple sealed tins of x54r and 5.45 a couple weeks back (my sealed tin of Russian 5.45 came out to $162 OTD).

A 10 inside two circles is indeed Bulgarian arsenal ammo.

Either way, that's a good deal on ammo.
