Found it from a while back.
Not one of the plastic shell holders are in one piece. Got about 2,000 rounds.
Pretty reliable in my guns, my buddy didn't have as good of luck in his Superior Arms AR.
It's in clear plastic bags per 500 rounds. I think I got it for less than $5 from Cabelas found it in storage from at least a couple years back.

I think so. Say TCW anywhere?

OOPS missed that! Sorry I was excited finding it!

Does the plastic shell holders always fall apart like this? Not that it really matters, but as soon as you open the box these fall into about 5 pieces.

Never bought any Russian ammo with plastic holders. It definitely wasn't made to last as shown in the picture.

Haha, yeah those plastic holders are brittle! I've shot a couple k through my Del-ton upper with zero problems.
I got it for 200 a k with free shipping awhile back. I like it!

ETA : anybody know where to get some more of this ammo?

Those white boxes predate the current black boxes.  Fired a few hundred with out issues in my rifles.

Yeah I paid around that much in Feb 2010 for that, most of my AR's like Tula and accuracy isn't too bad. The only AR-15 I had that wouldn't cycle Tula was my AR Pistol. I sold the rest I had, 500 rounds for $500 a few weeks ago.

Yeah I had some that were turning to dust I found some laquered Wolf circa 2000 and a bunch of those white boxes like that and all the holders were in bits...all sitting in the bottom of an old duffle bag that I forgot about from years past.  Every round went bang through a RRA, S&W, and a Colt that we had out that day.

That old laquered Wolf sure does make a mess

Says made at TCW, but the box shows the factory logo for Ulyanovsk and so do the headstamps on the ones like this I have examined. I say, made by Ulyanovsk for Tula... In either case, it's OK ammo. came out after "WOLF" and before "TulAmmo"
