Does anyone have much experience with the stuff that Canada ammo is selling? What is your overall impression? Also, I've seen forums that say some of the norinco ammo is corrosive even though its marked non corrosive. I realize you can't believe everything you read.... Just hoping to hear from some people with actual experience before i order a crate. Thanks.
 
It's not corrosive. I can hit a 12'x12" steel plate at 200m using iron sights with boring regularity using it in my older colt sporter (1:12 twist) and my m-forgery with a Dlask 1:9 twist barrel.
 
Just buy it. In match quality rifles, this stuff shoots sub 1/2 in groups consistantly, as long as I do my part. It's also very clean burning and whatever the jacke material is made from, very little jacket fouling, even after 50 rounds.


The only caveat, is that is has hard primers and some rifles with light firing pin springs will have failures to fire.
 
It is very good stuff. I bought a lot of it years ago - like 20 years ago and I am still reloading some of the brass as it is holding up well. The Norinco ammo is actually loaded quite warm and I have had good accuracy with mine.
