Ammoman.com is a great place to buy your ammunition.
My last purchase was 500 Federal American Eagle 55gr. FMJ and 500 50gr. HP. Both rounds performed well in my Bushmaster Shorty. I think the 50gr. HP was a little more accurate.
I've read posts where somebody buys a $800.00 rifle and then asks what the cheapest ammo is. I would not shoot the Russian ammo. Why take a chance for a few dollars in perceived savings? Steel cases are hard on your rifle's chamber and I've read posts from guys who say that the laquer on the case (to prevent rust) gums up their chamber.
