    Tar? Seriously? In my experience, the bullets being pushed into the case is more of a mag issue than an issue with the ammo.
    Some people have experienced popped primers and some have reported issues with key-holing with the Norinco 223 ammo but in the several thousand if shot I've never seen either of these problems. The primers are apparently hard and not much fun for bolt guns but for semis, it's good cheap fun in a can! For those inclined, the primers pockets are not crimped which makes for easier reloading.

    SFRC has a terrific shipping cost estimator. Just put it in your cart and you will see the shipping estimate button. Keep in mind you have to choose UPS for ammo shipping. Still works out cheaper for me than Canada Ammo with their free shipping but I'm in Ontario...in Edmonton, that might not be the case.

    No kidding! Went from 100 cases to 11 when I placed my order. This was the little push I needed to also pick up a BCG from you guys...$134 for a full auto BCG is a damn good deal!

    Shipping: I think it was $23 to Ontario on my invoice. The "hunting" discount was about $37. With shipping and taxes (13% HST) I'm at about $450. It will be cheaper in AB (no PST), BC (no HST), etc.

    Looking for a car pool buddy for weekly weekday trips from Burnaby to POCO. Better yet I'll drive weekly and you take me hunting.

    Ordered last night before bed...................shipping confirmation rec'd this evening. Great service. Funny how thread on other forum sponsor is getting so much attention to try and get a price match to save on shipping, then 3 weeks later will be back complaining that emails aren't being answered and package hasn't shipped.
