I like the Yugo. I think they were producing it right up to when the nation split up, and perhaps afterward in Serbia. It comes in little cardboard boxes with white labels I can't read, and shoots well. Some of the later stuff may be noncorrosive, but I always clean as if it is.

Or you could pick up some new-production Prvi, which is essentially the same thing in commercial packaging, and is certainly noncorrosive.

The M75 sniper ammo is nice, but I bought mine when it was far cheaper than what it seems to go for now. I have only seen a marginal improvement in accuracy over the standard Yugo 8mm with it, but I have only shot milsurps with iron sights. The difference may be more apparent when using other rifles.
