Best ammo for Yugo Mauser

[andrewdl007]

So I need some ammo for a Yugo Mauser 1924. Im sure its not an FN that was shipped to Yugoslavia, and its not a Yugo 24/47. Anyway, Its in decent condition but I was just wondering where I could get good and/or cheap ammo for it.

Thanks

Handloads.

I haven't had much luck with surplus ammo with the M48s, in fact I almost gave up on it until I fed it handloads.

My M48a always worked well with a batch of Yugo linked Surplus I picked up awhile ago. It's running low now though. Romanian stuff feeds nicely until it get's hot.

Mitchell's Mausers list new 8mm ammo. Seems to be a bit pricey, but they might be worth looking at.

I picked up 100 rounds of Wolf Gold from Ammoman.com. I think his price was $15 per box and that included shipping. FWIW. (my rc K98 seems to like it)
