Mosin Nagant

I'm assuming that the picture of the brass is not indicative of what you are actually getting. Cause that ain't 7.62x54r

...and also well above market price, like wellllll above, ya crazy kids

[Supaduke]

$349 for 100 cases......yeah......nah.
$3.49 for each brass, when I can get loaded rounds for $1.25
Each to their own, but I doubt you will get the benefit of fancy brass in an old milsurp.
By golly that's expensive brass

Trying to take advantage of a supply glut I think.
That's about double Norma's RRP?
I got 200 pieces of S&B for $230 delivered - pretty happy with that

Centreway finally got back to me.

"PPU ammo is $28 per pack of 20. Buy 5 packs or more and price comes down to $25 per pack.
Sellier and Bellot brass cases are $15 per 20 or $65 per 100."

Bugger, half what I paid

yeah, they are pretty good!

Except when it comes to responding to emails

So, I think, I'm good for a while...



Yes, that's a spam can on the bottom there... And half a can worth in the open ammo box

G'day bladeracer,
Keep all your S&B cases, you're going to need them. The brass they use does not reload very often, I've had some only take 3 loads. Your most cost effective option is PPU ammo, then reload the brass, Cheers.

That's interesting.
I'm using S&B and Hornady in 8x57mm and I have noticed the S&B does seem to stretch more than the Hornady, although not enough to need resizing so far.

Eh! Matching numbers and everything!

A model 1930 Mosin nagant made in 1927....... that's different
And $300 over market value for a crappy paint job that used about $15 worth of spray paint.

May have been sniffing a bit of that paint methinks

Just means it was a refurbished Dragoon '91 brought up to 91/30 spec.

Yeah, I don't think I'll need a scope on it
Ammo is easy to get?
From where?
I eventually found some but it was far from "easy".
What velocity does that load give you?
Do you have a .308 or .311 bore?
Mine slugs at .3110"
