7.62x39 sp ammo

[svt1940]

Today at the farm where i work, we killed a cow for meat. I used my SKS with chinese sp ammo that i buy back 16 years ago. The bullet are 123gr sp steel jacketed. While prepairing our cow, we find the bullet. The shot was fired about 5 yards aways in the skull between the eyes, and we found the bullet in the neck at the back of the head. You can see on the pics that the bullet did a nice mushroom. We speak of a cow of 1600 pounds. Ilike the 7.62x39 for task like that, i always use it and work well, not too powerfull like 308 as exemple.

No one likes blood shot meat.
Also that must be 1 big Canada day celibration for a whole cow to be needed.

Did you confirm it is a steel jacket?

Can you post a macro photo?

I am quite interested in how it expanded.

I am quite impressed by that bullet.

SKS as a farm gun... one more reason to buy one

 

[beefman]

I use the exact same combo (SKS and Norc SP), as my beef whack'r too....Works every time.

Still haven't recovered a bullet though.

 

[tactical870]

I prefer a .357 JHP as my cow killer.....

Generally I'm quite impressed with Norinco ammo.

Someone PLEASE import some more...I'm almost out. And yes, I know it has been discussed before, but I'm having an Alzh moment.

I've heard the "can't unload the ship in Vancouver" thing...but why not ship to Montreal, P. Alberni/ P. Rupert?

Or is it a pricing issue?

It can not shipped it currently at this time.

Add that to the fact that Chinese ammo was removed in the great NRCAN cull of 2010, means no norc ammo for now.

Father in law bought a bunch of this ammo at a gun show in Sask for 5$ a box, like a month ago.
We fired some to sight in his Chinese SKS. seemed to be pretty good.
I told him he should have bought it all!

 

[Charles Martel]

is there a process to have it placed back on the list or is it gone for good now?
