    Is this safe to shoot?

    My friend sent me these pictures of some Wolf 7.62x54r that have some corrosion on them. He asked if they were safe to shoot. I honestly don't know. I told him to pull a bullet and see how the powder looked. If it was clumpy or discolored I'd throw them out. I also told him if he did...

    30-06 ammo identification needed!

    Do any of you know what kind of ammo/bullets these are? I'm pretty sure they're Winchester, since the headstamp says "Super-X"... What can you guys tell me about these?

    Palmetto State Armory Ammo Packaging is Total Garbage

    I've made a few ammo purchases from PSA over the past few months. All from their Sabre line of 5.56. The ammo shows up in a normal cardboard box but it's just wrapped in plastic wrap with no type of filler. All the orders I've received have had smashed boxes. The ammo still looks serviceable...

    Surplus Ammunition Questions

    I purchased what I believe is some South African 5.56x45 and 7.62x39 today. My first question is are they corrosive? The 2nd question is some boxes of the 5.56 say M1A3 and some say M1A4. What is the difference? Thank you for any help you can provide.

    Best .300 Blackout Subsonic Ammo for Deer Hunting with Suppressor

    So, a few years ago I tried .300 Blackout subsonic Noveske deer hunting ammo with a 9.5" barrel and Sig Titanium Suppressor. I made 2 lung shots on 2 different smaller does. I found very little blood and after 2 days of looking did not recover either deer. Both had only about 2-4 drops of blood...

    Ammo storage

    How do you store your ammo? Only 1 caliber per ammo box or a little bit of each caliber in each box. Do you use ammo cans or something else. Shelves in my safe are too full.

    Best sites for ammo? And best ammo?

    I have heard really good things about targetsportsusa for ammo. I don’t usually buy bulk because I have a gun shop right next to me so if I knew I was gonna shoot I’d walk to the gun store and buy rounds. I know online is cheaper but that’s also with shipping and sense I don’t buy bulk I...

    .31, .36 and .44 Ammo box labels

    Hi, In some times ago I created old .36 Belt/Navy ammo box labels that I want to share with anybody who can use it on their own private project. I tried to use an original font as much as I can, but a very few cases some fonts are not fully identical. These labels must be resized to fit a...

    How do you store your ammo?

    Just a general question. I'm curious about your guys' philosophies on this. This is how I store ammo: 1. The bulk of my ammo is stored in the boxes it came in, inside either plastic, or metal milsurp ammo boxes. These are all locked. 2. I keep my reloaded ammo in mtm or Cabelas brand plastic...
