I got that email today. Tempting, but Golden Tiger still works out to almost $215/case after shipping for me.

Once it gets under $200/case delivered I may buy.

:coffee:

The Tula .308 at 500 rounds for $120 is a helluva good price. Does anyone have any experience with this ammo or comments? I load my own .308, but at that price, may buy some.

The Golden Tiger 7.62X39 is good stuff. I've used it in the past. That's the best price I've seen on it.

The ammo on stripper clips may be corrosive!!

Yup, just copied this from Aim's site:


Features a 123grn lead core copper jacketed bullet, brass case, and berdan corrosive primer.

Tula is Wolf. I have heard bad things in the past about Wolf .308. Maybe they have corrected them but I would need more info on if they have.

Thanks, Sevlex!! I'll hold off until more info becomes available. That's a killer price for .308!! The best prices I've seen prior to this are in the 40+ cent per round range for some of the military ammo. More details on the Wolf .308 appreciated.

I've ran some Wolf .308 through my ptr-91 w/o any problems. From the little range time I've had with my ptr the wolf was giving me better results than some milsurp I had....can't remember which, S. African I think. I didn't have any problems with the wolf either, no fte or ftf, but I didn't run it hard either. Prob a bit dirtier than others, but that's usual for Wolf ammo.

Thanks for the info, NewbieAKguy!! How was it on accuracy? It says boxer primed. Wondering if anyone had tried to reload it.

Any time paul. I only remember the rough accuracy compared to some milsurp I tried like I said above. I'm still experimenting with the xs dot sight set I put on it in place of originals and getting it zeroed in. I really want to get a scope rail for it, but funds aren't available. Think I might put original front blade back on and try again. I'll post once I have new results. I know someone here said they've reloaded steel cased ammo before, but not sure who. Maybe ask in the ammunition section.

How much shipped is the question... $180 for 1280 rounds is a great price... but it has CORROSIVE primers. Maybe that's why they're having trouble selling it and have lowered the price?

I just got an email from Rob at ammoman.com, he quotes $219 for a case of wolf delivered.

Corrosive primers and BRASS cases. If I still had a 7.62X39 AK I'd jump on it.

Just use a little Windex...

I'm not buying anything until I buy house. I don't care how good of a deal it is.

Remember the rules of supply and demand... everyone that wants this stuff pretty much has it now...


The prices will continue to fall as long as people aren't buying to much...

The yugo ammo is great stuff though. I really hope it continues to fall......might be a little while before I have the money to dump into any amount of ammo.....First getting a 92fs centurion, then an uzi, then ammo......

Is it 180 SHIPPED, or is shipping extra?

yeah, so you are still hitting 200+.......I really need to get some more non-corrosive, I might as well just get the golden tiger......

Thanks again, NewbieAKguy!! That price is tempting to buy a 500 round case of .308 and try it out. Will report the results if I do.
