I saw Silver Bear 7.62X51/.308 with zinc coated steel cases at a cheap price.  

Anybody ever use this ammo?

I have shot it out of my Mak's with no problem. I wonder how the JLD would do with them?

ive only shot the .223 Silver Bear ammo, If QC is the same throughout all calibers I wouldnt worry, it is very clean and decently accurate. Doesnt seem to be underpowered either

I have shot about 200 rounds through my PTR with no issues. IIRC the muzzle velocity listed is 2455fps which is considerably less than Wolf (2800) and Federal surplus (2750).  It is cheap enough however and should be just fine for plinking.
