I am not involved with anything suppressed. Isn't cast less than desirable in suppressors?My project is going to be making subsonic cast loads to go with my suppressors. I know that’s right up your alley!
How about 205gr JSWCs in the x39mm?

That would do it!I am not involved with anything suppressed. Isn't cast less than desirable in suppressors?

Sounds like a plan. Enjoy!That would do it!
And you’re correct WRT cast in suppressors, but it’s not typically a problem if you coat the boolits. I have about 4 life time supplies of HiTek (made/marketed/sold by Jerry michuleks brother) and will weigh my cans regularly...if they start gaining weight, I’ll know I need to cease shooting cast and will switch to copper jacketed/plated only.
Down to $339 shipped for x39. $340 for the 223There’s another vendor who ships to MA who’s got Vympel factory made 7.62x39 which is the same as Golden Tiger - just being imported under a new name I guess. $346 per 1k shipped. Also has 1k round cases of Vympel 223 for $346 shipped.
PM if interested.
I like the protection with CC. No way I’d use cash or check nowadays. If my CC gets compromised I dispute charge and they send me new CC. Done.FWIW, if you pay by check to the company referred to in post #139, your items are reserved for you until your payment arrives. A later CC order does not over rule your "pay by check" order, so "don't panic". It delays your order, but you avoid the risk of bogus DC/CC charges. I don't imagine they will hold your order awaiting for your payment for months, of course.
This all showed up today in good shape. Double boxed and all accounted for.The company with pulled bullets also has PPU M67 (boxer) for 43¢ per round (840 count) TYD.

Damn you got 2 cases?! Very nice! Seems like quality ammo. This is like filet mignon for my AR and AKThis all showed up today in good shape. Double boxed and all accounted for.
I checked my credit card for suspicious activity and nothing out of the ordinary at all.
Damn good deal and I’m happy I bought it. This is the last ammo I’m buying until I move. I’m already having anxiety about having to move all the shit I bought since I moved to a free state. This is going to SUCK!
I now have 3460 rounds of PPU and 250 new PPU brass...plus about 1000 other brass cases (500 of which are the R-P small primer stuff) and some miscellaneous brass cased complete ammo. I’m all set for a while of 7.62x39 reloading.
Thanks again for posting this @NavelOfficer
I had two cases from early wuflu and have been kicking myself for the past two years that I didn’t buy more when I could because I had everything I needed to reload the caliber. Literally hadn’t even seen a single box of PPU 7.62x39 since then...let alone multiple cases!Damn you got 2 cases?! Very nice! Seems like quality ammo. This is like filet mignon for my AR and AK
And thank you for the heads up on that! Though my wallet isn’t thanking you…lolYou guys did your part by acting fast; good job. If you tarry, you'll miss out.
And now, you'll have to track down and recover all of that good brass!And thank you for the heads up on that! Though my wallet isn’t thanking you…lol
I will say that's one reason I've been holding off on shooting that ammoAnd now, you'll have to track down and recover all of that good brass!
Mine is plenty accurate too. I only bought the ammo because the price was good for brass cased ammo but I wasn't planning on using it for benchrest shooting. I suppose it's worth a try just to see if there's a big difference in accuracy.My AR39 is dead accurate at 50 yds with plain wolf steel. I'm wondering if I should step it up to brass for 100+ yd benching when the weather warms up. I have some remington brass, but this PPU and S&B stuff looks much tastier.
That would do it!

Did you see the entire section of my post on hitek?bare lead projectiles will create a disaster of lead buildup. The only solutions are 1) get user serviceable can, 2) clean with “the dip” (peroxide + acetic acid) or 3) avoid lead projectiles.
anyone who can afford tax stamps and NFA toys can afford jacketed projectiles.
Got some of that other Vympel made x39 today. There’s no doubt in my mind this is rebranded golden tiger.Yeah, just 5 rounds each or so...and only if it’s easy for you to do. I’m just wondering if you found the secret stash with that other company selling ‘basically GT’ under the name vympel.
Oh, holy f***! Yeah...you ain’t kidding.Got some of that other Vympel made x39 today. There’s no doubt in my mind this is rebranded golden tiger.
“other” Vympel x39 on left. GT on right. Even the lot numbers/date format is almost the same. Same case headstamp same sealant same 124 gr bullet weight etc.

Lmao. Jackpot!Oh, holy f***! Yeah...you ain’t kidding.
No need to chrono that shit, lol. That’s mother f***ing GT!
I might sell some of my red army locally and reallocate the funds into some of that stuff. I’ve never heard anything BAD about it!Lmao. Jackpot!
Not bad for 32.5 cpr shipped either. Fast shipping too.
100% Yes they are both Vympel plant manufactured mil spec 762 ammo branded under different importer names. Golden tiger is just a brand name, same stuff different packaging and maybe importer.Got some of that other Vympel made x39 today. There’s no doubt in my mind this is rebranded golden tiger.

Thanks. Can you just remove the link at the end of your post? I was trying to avoid posting vendor names who ship ammo to MA (aside from TSUSA)100% Yes they are both Vympel plant manufactured mil spec 762 ammo branded under different importer names. Golden tiger is just a brand name, same stuff different packaging and maybe importer.
The white box red army standard is primarily inexpensive, commercial spec tula plant manufactured ammo, The tula is good practice ammo but is loaded inconsistently, somewhat less accurate, and doesn't store as well long term.
if you were to stock up on something, SHTF use, long range or self defense... it ought to be the lacquered and sealed case/primer mil-spec sutff. Vympel (golden tiger, BVA, some MaxxTech essential steel, among other brandings) or Barnaul would be the go to. The vympel is very good quality stuff and is/was what militaries across the world use, made by a Russian defense ministry state operated plant:
