Anybody knows where to buy non-corrosive 7.62 x 39 ammo. in Vancouver B.C. ? I have a Yugo SKS and do not want to rust her. Thanks.

I bought some berdan primed Norinco "non-corrosive" hunting ammo the other day, though I don't trust that it's "non-corrosive".

Are you talking about the Hungarian Ammo. I don't trust them neither.

Federal American Eagle is non corrosive, but it ain't nearly as cheap as milsurp.

 

[cwlam3]

How much are they ? Any alternative ?

 

[Holleyman]

If it is Berdan primed I don't trust it to be non-corrosive, boxer primed is usually OK... just my general rule of thumb.

Everybody says Norinco ammo are not corrosive and they are hard to find now. I don't know about the Hungarian stuff. Some people say they are but some people say they are not. The American Eagle ammo are very expensive. They go for 50 to 60 cents per shot.

I have only shot norinco through my SKS grey box and yellow box with no problems of rust (and I dont clean my SKS right after sometimes)
I also shoot green box 7.62/51 Norinco through my m305 with no problems

Lever arms used to have some, but I think All the Norinco stuff has all but dried up.

I can attest to that MFS stuff being corrosive, I had some nice bright orange blooms of rust on my gas piston after it just sitting a week before cleaning it. And I had it cleaned before i shot it, used some little norinco ammo and no rust.

My friend hasn't cleaned his SKS since 2001 and no rust with norinco ammo.

On another board, there was talk of soon a big Shipment and continuing supply of Norinco ammo coming into the country, but I'll believe it when I see it.

I pray for that day the Norinco silverbox boat comes in.

I like the Wolf Hollow points and wish i could get more at a good price.

NOt much of that left either.
