1080 Rounds of Surplus 5.45x39mm Ammo - Ammo - 53gr FMJ

IMO you can not find finer ammo for the AK-74. This is the ammo that was made for it. I have not found any commercial ammo in 5.45x39mm that performs as well. Golden Tiger is the the closest but it's hard to find. Just clean your weapon after use. (Posted on 5/22/2014)

This ammo is reliable and accurate, even though my local vendors wouldn't order any for me because "it's corrosive". A little education about "corrosive ammo": Our GRANDFATHERS fought WARS with it. They cleaned their weapons the best they could with what they had. Even a little water after firing them would flush out the by product corrosive material, and as long as you clean the rifle well after each time firing it, the rifle will be fine. The 53 bullet has a pretty stable flight pattern as well as the NATO 5.56. I would say this is good ammo that is known to "yaw" or turn on impact. That, coupled with the fact this has SOME armor piercing capabilities, since it has a steel core, has convinced me to use this can as a "stash" ammo. The current loose packages I own have been loaded into 30 round mags, alternating with Wolfe Hollow Point ammo for predator control out here in Central Texas (that goes for the 2 legged predators, along with the 4 legged kind). I noticed the price has gone up a bit, but do plan on acquiring some more in the near future. (Posted on 5/4/2014)

The ammo I received was dated 1982 from Factory 539 reads as follows: "5.45 NC" The little letters "rc" are missing from the description which annotates a steel case round. All other cans I have ever received reads: 5.45 rc NC or 5.45 NC rc. The little letters rc have always been marked on the can no matter what year it was made or the factory it was made. Then there is a weird marking on the side of the can that has a Cyrillic marking the looks like this: >I< which means Gilded metal clad steel case? I can not open the can as I want to preserve it in the condition it has been in for the last 30 years or so. Anybody ever receive a spam can that looked like this? I went ahead and purchased another can as well despite the weird markings as "BULK AMMO" STILL HAS A RESONABLE PRICE FOR THIS TYPE OF AMMO! Additionally they don't over charge you in shipping charges when you go to check out. Bulk ammo also ships there stuff same day most of the time if you order early! Great Customer Service as well!

Adams arms upper with eotec and blackheart lower. I can keep an inch group at 50 yards with this ammo on a rest quick fire. Enough said (Posted on 4/5/2014)

This ammunition has fantastic reliability, and good performance, not to mention it's an awesome bargain. But Russian surplus ammunition is quite corrosive for the barrel, internal parts, etc. Keep in mind that you must do lots of cleaning after shooting this type of ammunition, otherwise your firearm will show ill effect within 24 hours of use without cleaning.
