7.62x51mm NATO - 146 gr FMJ - Malaysian Surplus - 540 Rounds in 50 Cal Ammo Can

Buying bulk ammo is that much better when the cartridges come with their own ammo can! This 540-round box of 7.62 NATO ammunition was manufactured during the 80s and kept preserved within military-grade .50 caliber storage cans. Each steel can has a secure latch, foldable carry handle, and rubber seal which works as a protective gasket against humidity and moisture. These factors combined with the component choice of the ammo itself ensures dependably functioning rounds that will feed well in your FAL, SCAR-17s, or PTR 91.

The 7.62x51mm ammunition in this package was made within close specifications to M80 ball, and therefore uses a 146-grain FMJ projectile with a jacket made from gilding metal and a sleek ogive. The bullet is loaded into a brass casing that has been annealed at its neck and mouth in order to provide proper pressure and chamber seal when firing; this contributes to more consistent muzzle velocities for plinking, zeroing, and amateur match use. At the base of the brass case is a non-corrosive Berdan primer that has been tri-stake in place in order to avoid show-stopping malfunctions. The primer was installed with an accompaniment of sealant to guard the inside of the cartridge against moist environments so that it remains shootable for years to come.

    I had issues the first time i tried using this in my brand new semi automatic ar-10 like firearm. It did not want to cycle properly and would function as a single shot, but cycled with 308 rounds, making me think it was the ammo. Once the firearm was lubed and retested with this ammo, there was not a single issue in a string of 50 shots. Highly recommend this ammo.

    This ammo did not cycle a single round in the 25 different attempts I tried to make it work. It just does not want to pick up the next round. I believe that the ammo is slightly underpowered and thus does not push the bolt back far enough for the next round to be picked up in the magazine.

    Breaking in M&P10 16" carbine. Rifle functioned better with this ammo than .308. Ammo was clean, no duds, good accuracy, free ammo can. For the sale price pretty good deal.

    About 1 in every 15 rounds got stuck in the chamber of my DSA FAL and caused a malfunction. Decent accuracy, seems clean.

    Had just purchased a new M1A Scout rifle so needed to ammo up. Gave these surplus rounds a go; they are excellent! My boys and I have put a a few through the rifle: all have fed, went bang and hit where we are aiming. When I get an optic on this rifle I can really test them but so far I am very happy. Going to save up some more money to get another can.
    Very pleased with ammoman over the years too; have never had a problem and the ammo shows up super fast....like amazon prime fast....lol
