Bulgarian brass case 7.62x54R ammo?

[jeff43]

Anybody shot any of this ammo? Head stamp 10 on top and 54 on bottom.I s this good ammo?

Yellow tip, silver tip, or no painted tip?

[jeff43]

Yellow tip, heavy ball

[austin7.62]

Yes, it's good enough. My carbines like it, and brass is always good for smooth feeding and extraction.

What's your favorite ammo?

It's all very similar and fine for shooting steel, plinking out to maybe 300 yards. 

 

Beyond that, the best surplus is the Russian match stuff made in the 70's. It's brass case and 182g boat tail. That's the best I've found w/ the exception of handloading.

Ok , thanks for the help.

What's your favorite ammo?

It doesn't really matter to me. Most of what we shoot is machine gun ammo anyways. If I had to pick a favorite, I'd say for the 91/30s it would be the 1940s lead core ammo that came in 2 summers ago. For my carbines, 182gr heavy ball Hungarian made ammo.

[jeff43]

I have some of the Hungarian too.

If you are after most accurate. This is what you want (if you can find it).
