umm idk. id have to search around more to see.

either way theres no way Congress would allow it but if a prez did try it he should be impeached.

I think that article was the top of the google search list. I saw one from rueters hold on ill check

yeah its real thin...
I found this but the baby is crying so I gotta run. Theres no way it would pass ratification in our Congress but like I said if Obama does anything other than condemn it he should be impeached.

I've been looking for years to find a source for that story that is not a blogger, and I've been unsuccessful. I don't think it's true.

I went in Buds' retail store today, they had a whole crate of it still in retail marked $160, I argued them down to $145 each for two. I'm set for a while now, we'll see how the prices go . . .

Yeah. I did see those. I'm trying to keep my mind open, but there's just no evidence that any of it is true.

Wow, I never thought 5.45 would dry up, I guess it got really popular.

It was the only ammo that was still cheap and in large supply, so naturally as the pre-election hysteria set in people looked to the only caliber they could afford to by en masse. You can blame the hysterical ninnies - again.

I have three mouths to feed, 2 Tantals, and a SAR-2, I see people buying pallets of this ammo! I thought one tin per rifle would be enough. My UPS man hates me!

even though the big retailers seem to be out NOW... that does not mean that another giant shipment will not come in and they will all be stocked again... im sure they all get its from the same one or two sources.

if thats the case then we all may be waiting a while longer because Sgammo specifically said 3-4 months before new shipments of surplus and that was said 3-4 weeks ago. Also they are going off a guesstimate or even a WAG from the one or two importers if thats the case.

I get the impression RGuns imports it. I know they import guns and sell some to other retailers like AIM and SOG. I assume they import ammo too. We can also be reasonably sure Century is importing. Anyone else?

Century now has it for $264.95 for a 1080 round tin. Wow. I got it for $118 per crate a couple years back from them. Glad I got 32 crates.

I think I pointed out earlier in this thread that the Bulgarian 7n6 Century is carrying is listed as '91 vintage which means it should have a stronger steel penetrator than older style 7n6 we're used to seeing like the '70s and early '80s version.
Do I think that's worth twice the current price? Nope. Could be for you though if having a stronger potential for armor piercing is important, and not to mention still being a hell of a lot cheaper than modern production green tips.

I can't say about penetrator strength, but I've shot this stuff at steel plates and at water bottles, and it makes a 1/4" dent in soft steel plates, and it penetrates 6 1-gallon plastic water bottles before blowing out the side.
