I only shoot Russian-made Barnaul now. It's non-corrosive and I've had very good results with it. As for corrosive surplus fodder... my best experience is with Czech-made stuff from the 1970's... but horribly dirty.

just missied a huge sale at Cabellas..they were on sale for $180...think theyre around $225 normally

Yes the Cabelas deal was great. I got mine at the Kanata store. They let me look at quite a few before one of the staff said they had a few nicer ones in the back. The one he brought out was a 1954 refurb in a laminated stock. It was really nice so I grabbed it. Odd thing was it was all matching except for the magazine. And the mag had the 5 round pinning on the follower inside the mag. I didn't think they were doing that anymore.

Our new CT franchise owner is pro gun, he even offers a discount on firearms and ammo to the local gun club. Which I'm a member of. So the high cost of ammo is almost at a respectable price.

They are sweet shooters.I would never part with mine, and consider them worth a little more money than a Russian.The military grade ones are the best.

Picked up a really nice one at Crapbelas a few weeks back for $189.
