Is this stuff vaporware in both 7.62 and 5.45? I am just wondering as I haven't seen anything around in a while and have heard great things.

PS: Where can I find Yugo M67???

It comes in in batches. 5.45 most recently (November?). Because it's so desirable and its arrival so highly anticipated, it usually sells out within a day or two. That means months of unavailability which only serves to heighten desirability and anticipation, which again leads to it selling out within a day or two. The circle keeps circling.

Go to SGAmmo's site and set up email notifications so that you'll know when it's back I stock. Or don't, so I'll have a better chance of getting a case for myself.

There have been delays getting the shipments to leave the factory since April 2014.  Next shipment of GT could take a while to materialize in the US market, but I believe in time we will see some more of those product

Thanks

Last case I saw online was Widener's, they only advertised a few cases left, maybe $360/case? Their shipping is a little higher than most but they've given me good service. If you're looking for smaller lots JG sales was selling it in 40 round packs for like $16.
As for GT the only online source I know of is SGAmmo, they post pretty regular updates in their Industry Forum but last I read was it's still hung up in red tape over there, it's always come and gone but this is a pretty long dry spell for GT. I'd like to snag some 5.45x39 GT if any comes in to try against 7N6.

Sportsman's guide has Yugo M67.    Decent price.     I'll buy more of this stuff if it ever comes back to 20cpr.

Golden Tiger? It has a boat-tail bullet, lacquered case and lacquer-sealed primer and cannelure. It is 'hot' ammo at military velocity and has proven to be more accurate than most imported steel-case. Its what I use to sight in with. I also have a lot of various kinds of Wolf for general shooting. When the weather breaks I plan to do some accuracy testing with my SIG 556R and the various kinds of 7.62x39 I have just to determine once and for all what is the most accurate, what is good enough and what stinks.
I have sold off my M67 but it is great ammo. You just have to do the special cleaning because its corrosive. The reason I sold it was I found that GT was just as good but non-corrosive. At the time I sold it, I just turned around and replaced the two cases with GT. That turned out to be one of my better moves because GT dried up after that.
I have not tried any 'Red Army' but that's probably worth consideration, and they have brass-case with copper-jacketed bullet, which basically amounts to non-corrosive M67.

GT ammo shoots much cleaner in my AK47 than other brands. However in my AK74 it's as dirty as Wolf.

RAS .............. if you want problems this stuff will give you some. Just take the steel AK issue cleaning rod & a hammer with you when you go shooting to drive out the stuck cases.

Sportsmans guide did have it for 23cpr last November and it was on stripper clips.

They raised the price after a bunch of us over on the AK files ordered a metric ton of it

I just bought a case of Klimovsk 7.62x39 at my LGS. I hadn't planned on it, however, it was a fair deal. It's one of the only laquor coated 7.62 still left. The RAS Romanian is hard to come by and the Brown Bearis mostly polymer coated anymore. I'd love to get GT again.
