About This Military Surplus 8mm Mauser JS Ammunition

This ammo is corrosive! Your rifle is not going to dissolve in your hands while you are firing it, but you’re going to want to clean your rifle properly after you’ve run corrosive ammo through it. (Unless destroying your rifle with rust is your intention, of course.)

Coming in hot, straight out of Greece! This 8mm Mauser ammo was produced for the Mediterranean nation’s military some time during the 1930s or 1940s, and it has been sitting in storage for all these decades. What a shame. Order a case and let this military surplus ammo finally serve its purpose!

The Greek military loaded brass cases back in the day, but they also loaded Berdan primers. They ought to ignite reliably enough, but handloaders please note that the cases’ dual flash holes make them incompatible with Boxer primers. This ammo’s primers are additionally sealed so rain wouldn’t ruin an entire regiment’s day.

Free shipping and handling on your entire order when you order this case of ammunition!

    Recommend a new firing pin. Just look up “ Wolff gunsprings” I got mine from there works super great youtube shows you haw to do it for most guns. But yeah hard hitting ammo and I mean it. Good for plinking and having fun. No jams or anything that was fault of the ammo. Make sure to CLEAN AFTER SHOOTING. WD-40 or some bore cleaner will do good and make sure to dry

    Good ammo to plink around and seems pretty accurate so far. Hits hard on targets too. If you have troubles firing make sure your firing pin spring can support the military surplus ammo type. Also make sure you clean your rifle(s) after shooting this ammo. WD-40 and whatever else seems to be good cleaner than some oil after drying and cleaning up the WD-40.

    I ordered when these were $455/case shipped. I shot 20 out of a yugo M48 and all worked perfectly. I do have a friend who tried some (ordered from a different vendor, but the same stuff) out of a K98 and he had some FTF’s. I suspect a weak firing pin spring, so just be aware you may need a stiffer firing pin spring for like $7.
