New surplus? Or new old surplus? We're currently feeding ours on bangs canned in 1953 - from Chris at Ammo-Zone - and they all work !

That's the stuff!!

Met him at Bisley show and at £29. Glad it shoots well and to what distance?

We've fired a few hundred rounds of it so far through our M48 Yugoslav Mauser with not a single bang failing to escape. We only shoot at 300 and 600 yards at the moment, and the accuracy has been well within our capabilities at those ranges.

Fantastic! They're the sort of distances which will keep me happy all day long! :cheers:
