Hi,

Was 15 minutes into my drive to the range before I realized that I had forgotten my Mosin ammo. Not wanting to turn back as I was meeting others at the range, I stopped at an Academy and bought some Monarch ammo at $.50 per round knowing that I have a couple of thousand rounds of the surplus stuff at home. Oh well.

Is this ammo corrosive? I've done a quick windex job but would like to forgo a more thorough cleaning as I'm leaving town at 0 dark 30 tomorrow.
 
No, Monarch is new production Prvi Partisan ammo rebranded for Academy.
 
While I'm disappointed it took 4 minutes to get an answer I am pleased with the answer. ;)

Thanks ugaarguy, much appreciated.
