I've got several packs of it put back. I've had it for several years . I was asking because some of it is BF headstamped and some is FMN and didn't know if there was any difference.  I know it's dried up in most places but I see it at a lot of gun shows around here still. I started getting SA as it's cheeper.

Some people say the BF is better, other like the FNM more. I have shot some BF 79 and it is fantastic ammo. It should all be about the same though. IIRC, some people have found that the Port. FMJ will frag in some cases, though I have never seen any gel tests done with it. I think it has a very thin steel jacket like the uber 7.62 from Germany.

Anyone have more on this?

All good. A few had failures to fire but it turned out to be FALers with US parts fcg that hit it lighter than milspec.
