Super-corrosive. You need to sell that to me right away!
No. That should be the good stuff. I have some of that. Boxes inside, yes?

Umm why do you want to start bashing my username now? You have no clue where it comes from, just pathetic.
Its already been established that it is in fact corrosive, why bother leading people on that it may be otherwise on a separate thread? If you didn't want to lead any of "those other board members" on why not just say that it is corrosive as stated in another thread? If your a "cheap, fence-sitting b*stards" then you should know that other retailers are selling this same ammo marked as corrosive for a lot less.
Reliable is $280. Henry (love that guy) has it for $262 (plus ship unless you want to drive all the way out there if you live in Vancouver). Rusty has it for $270 in Mission (again, if one from Vancouver feels like the journey to save $30). If $20 is "a lot less" to you, I am sorry for being so misleading. I live roughly between Lever and Reliable so the $20 is enough for me to point the Cheap-O-Meter to Reliable.
Now I know what Satain felt like.
p.s. you're
p.p.s. I'm only one b*stard - it just feels like more...

270 shipped if you look around...went up from 220 recently
Oh sorry, didn't realize I was submitting a formal report to you.
sTraTz, the OP was quoting me and as your user name was in my quote is likely why you where dragged into this thread.
Sorry for getting you riled up and I have corrected the error of my ways.
as for the cheapoes who dont like to spend more than they can afford , use Windex and lots of it with a hot water batch after to clean your super expensive sks's.
Tight Groups,
Rob

Check the headstamp, very likely the stuff wrapped in paper is the 1972 stock -- Corrosive.
lever just sent me this:
There is a misconception on what corrosive ammo is and is not. Contrary to what people on CGN say, the ammunition we sell is free of the corrosive salts in the primers. The ammo is dirty and will require cleaning after use. China changed from corrosive primers in 1971 and our ammunition was produced in 1972 or newer. We have had the primers tested and they are non-corrosive.

catapult, Thank you...
I stand corrected on my thoughts on if it is or if it isnt corrosive ammo.
I have no axe to grind with Levers as I have spent several thousand dollars there over the years.
When I had the R-pal endorsement on my lic.
It is worth while for consumers to use do diligence when buying ammo and other consumer goods.
Thanks for passing on the info.

Sure it does. They're lying.
They are the only folks on the planet who say that the Chinese went to NC primers that early. The Americans will laugh if you post a thread asking if it's NC.
There's only so many times we can go round and round on this BS question. Good luck to anyone who buys it. Don't clean your rifle and let us know the results.
