I haven't had any issues with teh last 1400 rounds I've shot of it.  Although, I did notice that 1 out of every, say, 60, was a weaker charge.  Still went bang, but didn't fully cycle my FAL.

I got a deal for $129 /1,000 round crate .

At that price ,I decided to give it a try .

Of the first 300 used so far ,I've had no jams .
I'm using them for plinker ammo in my HK-91 ,so
your results will vary .
I have noticed some occasional rounds with a
rumpled un-uniform area on the rim of the case neck .
About ,1 round of 40 .

Don't expect to shoot any matches with this stuff.
It's the dirtiest and least accurate surplus ammo
I've used so far .
So dirty ,the inside of my rifle looks like there was
black powder in the cartridges .
My 1.5 inch 100 yard groups with Port turned into 5 inch
with this stuff .

So far I've only used Port ,Aussie ,South African ,and
Argentine to give you an ideas .

If you can get it real cheap ,it's worth it to plink with .

I haven't had any function problems ,it's just dirty
and not real accurate .
I want to try some Salt Lake ammo next .
Anyone tried it ?
(Just because it's made in the US ,that doesn't tell me it's any good )

I got it from ammoman for $129/1000 to my door.  I didn't buy it to win a match, just plinking.  Who else has some good prices on 308 ?
