Where can I get .223 62 gr. steel core loaded ammo?

Dennis Olson · September 1, 1999, 02:42 PM

I have a supplier, but the person ahead of me in line ordered 20,000 rds! Not much chance for ME to get my measly 1,000 rds before next year. (I want them for Y2K)

Can anyone direct me to where I can get some?

Thanks,

Dennis Olson

Enlist in the National Guard, maybe?

Sorry, I've seen no supplies in recent months. And although the NatGd does have the capability to call in air support, those poor guys are enough of a bullet-magnet that I wouldn't want to be one *if* Y2K brings civil disturbances.

Try your local gun show and look for the Russian imported 62 gr. It's steel cased and berdan primed but it's very good blasting ammo and I've found it to be very accurate.
Also try the sites below.

If everyone thought like me, I'd be a damn fool to think any different!
