[ARCHIVED THREAD] - S&B .308 ammo?

Posted: 9/17/2014 10:38:30 AM EDT

Anyone bought and used this S&B .308 ammo that's on HKPro?

http://www.hkparts.net/shop/pc/1060-Round-Case-Of-308-Ammunition-S-B-ON-SALE-9p16484.htm#.VBmcg1eMmSo

Great price for a case, but I'm still smarting over having bought 500 rounds of Herstal ammo, that has bulging primers and a sepearted case.

So I don't want to load up unless it's decent ammo.

Thanks,

"mildly corrosive".......

I don't know I would like that.........

AND

"The cheapest available 308/7.62 ammo on the market. Limited supply once this is gone there will be no more."

NOT TRUE! WalMart has new mfg .308 brass cased, lead cored ammo for 20rds/10bucks.

I was always told it was corrosive and treated it as such. I shot a lot of it in the early 90's out of a Valmet, Galil, and an FAL, it was accurate enough and always went bang.

First off, they are using deceptive marketing.

The stuff is corrosive. There is no such thing as "mildy corrosive", that would be like being "mildly pregnant".

I had a couple of cases of the stuff a decade ago. I paid less than a dime a round. It's decent ammo, but I wouldn't fool with it when you can get n/c cheaper.

ZQi is 52 cents a round at Wal-Mart. Brass Case, boxer primed, and non corrosive. I'd pay a few cents more for that pleasure.
