I don't think its better. Just newer. Both are noncorrosive and both made by Norinco. Perhaps price would make one better than the other?

I don't think anyone will recieve their's until after Easter? If it shoots well out of my CZ 527 then I'll probably order another crate. I kind of think this new batch will be the best we have ever seen!

Is this stuff better quality than Barnaul ammunition? I only ask because I pay close to the same for that, and it's also modern non corrosive. Any difference between copper washed and laquered?

China will continue to manufacter and export ammo. From what I understand any ship that is carrying ammo to be unloaded in the Port of Vancouver cannot enter U.S. waters. So I assume the ships enter U.S. waters before they offload in Vancouver??? Or does th U.S. say that any ammo on the ships manifest make the ship unable to enter? Even if the ammo had been offloaded in Vancouver? Either way the U.S does not want guns or ammo from China anywhere near its borders!

Couldn't resist. CanadaAmmo is like the mistress stirring up trouble in the family
Agreed!
I told myself I was done building a 7.62x39 stockpile... well, my wife told me I was done building a 7.62x39 stockpile.
Now this!
Can't... resist... must, buy ammo.

Buying a older ship is the cheap and easy part and they are plentiful. Registering it and bringing it up to par with flag state and class requirements is the expensive part. Then again one can easily lease a ship and run it under their own ship management company with their own crew.
An example would be Canship leases ships from Knutsen AS and runs the tankers for offshore Newfoundland.

And any word on how you/we/anyone can fix the situation and get ammo flowing again?
Ammo looks good, nicely packaged with plastic stand and white box. Kinda feel cheated with the lost grain, only 122 instead of 123
As to the ammo flow problem heard it was thanks to all the union strikes in the Vancouver ports forcing ships to offload their entire cargo at Seattle, then truck to Canada. Can't do that with banned NORC container so solution is don't carry NORC.

Comes in a standard cardboard box with two large plastic wraps which include 30 boxes of 20 rounds each stacked 2 deep.

Once the ships enter the Salish Sea and the Strait of Juan de Fuca it's hard to avoid US territorial waters in larger cargo vessels. There are a couple places where the US territorial waters are only 1000 meters from Canadian soil. Now if Canada had a huge port further north, like in Prince Rupert...
