I'd go with a 5.45mm Krinkov. Aimsurplus' ad for Silver Bear 5.45mm disappeared.
I don't know of anyone who has 5.45mm FMJ in stock. There seems to be HP and SP around.

Personally, I want a Bulgarian 5.56 Krink on a milled receiver.  I get the feeling it'll never happen, though.  I haven't seen an ad for a 5.56 Krink kit for months.  So, I'm settling for an AK-102 clone.  I've got the front end, and I'm supposed to pick up the receiver from Firing Line in a couple weeks.

I always understood 5.56 to be ill-suited for short barrel lengths.  Furthermore why not 7.62?  

Is their really a 5.45 shortage right now??

I don't know if there is a shortage of 5.45....,  but it seems that places like Dan's Ammo & Sportsman's Guide...., who have pretty much always had Barnaul in the past have been out for a while now!!

I hope theres no shortage......, I've got three hungry 5.45's that get that get pretty damn lonely if they aren't fed on a regular basis  !!!
Muffing should be an olympic sport!!
