Wish I lived a little closer....
why did my car have to break down this morning..... didn't get it back till just an hour ago....
5x3x2x1440x8=345,600 rounds
Not bad.
Propellant, assuming 26gr/per cartridge, is 583kg. Since personal amount is 225kg, you could buy about 3 pallets. If it wasn't for that darn 5 crate limit...

I miss living in Chilliwack and being within a 30m drive to Wanstalls. Parking was always a pain though.
I made it just in time!
The young woman there said there were only a few left after I got two.
Where was it made? She said Russia, but there is a price sticker that says Norinco...
Ha, me too... I checked out just after 4pm myself. One of them told me a story about sending one of the guys in a truck to the warehouse to get more crates and coming back with only FIVE. I gulped a bit when I walked in there expecting to see the a dwindling remnants of a once mighty stack of crates but instead only saw two lonely crates next to the other ammo. That suited me just fine, I seized my two and about 5 mins later they replaced them with another two.
Maybe Wantsalls can confirm but I'm pretty sure this is Chinese made surplus from the look of them and the crate size of 1440. Perfect since I was looking for this anyway. Should be copper washed I think....
It's quite a drive for me to get there, so I go very infrequently, but I keep forgetting what a friendly store this is!
Those are Chinese crates.
Buy em cheap, stack em deep!
Anyone know if those come on the stripper clips or are they boxed?
