John:

Any chance of finding surplus 8mm Mauser, I see it on some of the U.S. sites from various countries, and thought if anyone in Canada could get some it would be you... enjoy the upcoming holiday season

8mm mauser ammo, we have sold most of it off into the us.... Some put aside for future delivery here....

John

you will finish shipping containers of 8mm mauser in a day if you bring them in to KANADA

 

[midnightpossum]

You could sell the rest to Canadains... I only would like maybe a crate.. then I will be good for-eva

 

[Eternal_SiR]

i gave up trying to find surplus, now i just reload.. probably your only bet now adays.

 

[Petrock]

I think we'd like two crates please

 

[Dryzen]

Quite list of interestees but I dont think we'll be seeying much 8mm surplus come our way. Quite a big clientelle south of the border.

Leave the 1950's stuff to the Americans, sell us the M-75 Yugo accuracy loads pretty please with a cherry on top!

 

[vonlemberg]

I'll be interested in K98 too

Portugease and Yugo are the best, Turkish and Greek not so good. Been 10 years since Canada had any... Even drying up down south.

I've got a Yugo Mauser on the way, but purchased it knowingly that 8mm surplus has gone the way of the Do-do bird. Fortunately there are good commercial loads with re-loadable brass. My rule of thumb for surplus ammo is to buy it generously. Dry markets can go on for a long time, if not forever. Sometimes I buy crates of ammo in calibers that I don't even own, simply because i know it may be the last inventory for the next decade. Milsurp rifle sales would be better if you could get ammo to feed them, but get used to it. Its unfortunately the way of the future. Shooting is not a cheap hobby.

I think that train has come and gone. And it didn't stop at our station.

I was getting ready to give up on waiting and just buy a pile load of components and make my own. I'll try to hang on a bit longer, but that itch to shoot my mausers is getting to be too much

John,
Thank you for the update. That's good enough for me to hold my breath still.
Merry X-mas to you.

Are you referring to the Yugo 1999 sniper grade ammo?

 

[LeeEnfieldNo.4_mk1]

OIs this stuff Boxxer primed or Berden, not that it will make any difference ill probably buy at least a crate or two, but just wondering, reloadiable surplus brass is like the toy in the cereal box.

You mean that stuff that has flooded the US market.

I hope so. Waiting a long time

I don't know about the US market, only what John, himself, is quoted to have said.

It sounds expensive.
