Yay!

You made it!

Let us know how they shoot!

I suspect the carbines will have to be de-greased.

Default sure do

Still a lot of grease on them. Ammo seems to be a problem.

Carbine ammo is indeed a problem.

G.I. ammo is all but gone.

Wolf ammo shoots good, but I've heard that the steel cartridge cases are causing extractors to break.

Aquila ammo is slightly under-powered...about 100fps less than G.I. and U.S. commercial ammo.

Rem-Umc seems the best bet, if you can find it.

Default Got 500 rounds

on backorder through Sportsmans Guide. Will arrive "sept. 2009". Bought up the last two 20 round boxes of .30 in our area. Place charged me 1.00 a round. Will leave 15 here and shoot the rest on the mountain.

bOOger...you need to check around Indy and try and bring some ammo. Let me know if you find any.
