I have a really good Yugo Mauser for a couple of years now. I bought it at a Gun Show for $160.00. The bluing is good, bore is great, it has a hooded front sight, bayonet, and the numbers all match. It also has a turned down bolt; which I have heard are great to find. I have shot it many times with no problems. Yet, I have not ever checked the head space. The dealer that I bought it from assured me that it should have no problems. So far, no issues. However, yesterday I was shooting it and I was loaded some really old surplus rounds that I bought cheap. I had been firing S&B rounds with no problem. When I fired this stuff it really boomed and I felt hot flash hit my forehead (thankfully, I was wearing glasses). The rifle seems to be fine with cracks or apparent damage; but I put it back in the trunk of the car and did not shoot it again. Is this indicative of head space problems, or just a problem of really bad and old ammo?
