I can remember when .45 ACP and 303 British ammo was surplus, plentiful and cheap. Ya, once its gone, its gone.They do call it surplus for a reason. Once it runs out....

Buy it cheap stack it deep, still have 5 unopend crates of rusky surplus bought it on sale 5 years ago for 179.99, and about 4000 rounds of no corrosive when was on sale at canammo in '14, I learned along time ago to buy as much as you possible can when it's cheap, I remember when I first got my license in 98 buying boxes of 48 303 British surplus for 6$/box down to 400 rounds of that.. Lol
Where is the best(cheapest) place to buy brass? Does the extractor tear up the cases very much? Thanks.I just buy brass, cast bullets, reload and have fun. Close to the cost of surplus![]()

Damn right. I find the sks is forgiving if you have a 762 AR stick with Norico in the Silver boxes or Russian in the green tins. I got 1000rnds of loose stuff from a very nice sponsor and it jams every 3rd round (random loose chinese)

I get my brass from Tradex. I modified the gastube to drags the system a bit. Not hard on the brass at all.
Got 10 crates in Freddy almost exactly a year ago, went on a road trip! $225 a crate for 1440 ends of Chinese, even though they were adverting it as Czech!! $265 taxes and gas in to my door! Me and 10 crates of x39 in the wife's Honda Civic still got 6l/100 k on the highway!
Its not all dried up quite yet

I dont think it will dry up for a long long time as there are active military using the round, but , the crates of old corrosive will slowly dissapear and the new stuff will likely be close to the price of .223!
