I have some. Good ammo. BTW where did you get it. I got mine about 20 years ago and haven’t seen any since.
Got it from a friend who is moving and didn’t want to haul it with him. I have no idea how old it is. It is all still in sealed brown plastic battle packs and in the original green metal ammo cases.
It is still in the battle packs unopened, in the metal box it originally came in.If it is still in the 140 round uncompromised brown heavy plastic battle pack I'd say yer good to go.
If in the 20 round cardboard box, with no signs of corrosion or being run over by a halftrack I would shoot it.
Remarkably good ammo.... Even better 20 years ago when it was ~$20 / 140 round battle pack.
The plastic pack is from 1980.
Just a bit older than me.
Damn now i feel old.
Adding my voice to the chorus, that is some of the Good Stuff, Buzznrose.I recently came into some surplus ammo. Going to shoot it soon, but wondering if anyone had any info/input on this stuff: ...
Thanks! No, I’m not a reloader, although I do save brass for folks who do.Great ammo, I remember purchasing it in I believe 1200 round crates. As I believe FROGO207 said earlier in this thread, the only downside is that it is berdan primed if that matters to you.
Pop open a couple. Can you hear powder shake back and forth? If you can, that at least tells me it isn't fusing together unless it's slightly compressed when loaded. If you can, and some don't, open one of those.The ammo looks fine on the outside. No telling how much heat exposure it’s seen
