I'm thinking this stuff is not MK7z. I just pulled a bullet and it just lead core ball ammo with no aluminum tip. Anyone else have an opinion?

My two cases on stripper clips came in today. I'm a happy camper. I unpacked it and found that I can get 540 rounds in a .50 caliber ammo can.  |

I got 2 cases of the bandoleers and had 100 missing rounds and a bunch of rusted rounds (all HXP 76). CTD made it right and are sending me a new case to fix the missing and corroded rounds. The question now is whether my next purchase should be a case of the clipped or non-clipped? Which is the better deal? Also does anyone have a good source for US made ammo cans by the case? Thanks.

Clipped = $177.39/450 rounds = $.394 per round; plus you get 90 stripper clips Easy decision for me.

I put another 315 in a .30 caliber can. I found that I could fit 305 rounds on stripper clips in a .30 can. My two cases from CTD fit nicely in 3 ammo cans. (Each can is fairly heavy.) |

Just saw the listing last night and ordered some. Checked back today and looks like clipped is gone.
Edit: got one of each, both looked amazingly nice! |

I just received my two cases, and everything looks good.
The chargers are in great shape, as is the ammo. Most of the chargers are marked "B.P." (British Pens?) and "Mk4". About 25% of the chargers are totally unmarked. It does not appear that the chargers are Greek-made. |

They must been getting towards the end of it. BTW if anyone wants to know Shipping was cheaper on the loose packed case even though it had more rounds in it. |

Just got a case of .303 on bandos only 24 left. I understand that this is sold out, but how do you tell by looking at CTD's website how many cases they have left in stock? |

That didn't work for me. Instead I got a cart that costs $189,000 for which no shipping options are available.

I just ordered two 480 round cases of the Greek stuff from CTD. I'm looking forward to trying it in my new to me Mk4 No. 1 I picked up last week.
