Others report that it feeds quite well, is very consistient and accurate, but is VERY corrosive, so be prepared to do a full tear-down and thorough cleaning at the end of your shooting session. Here's a link to a recent discussion: http://parallaxscurioandrelicfirearmsforums.yuku.com/topic/34895 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- What part of "shall not be infringed" don't you understand?

I have a couple of Yugo SKS's. This ammo was made especially for this rifle. I have not opened my case of this ammo yet either. Are there any signs of ammo prices coming down? Thanks Again, Take Care, Volga

It is corrosive primed but normal cleaning takes care of that at least for me. Yes ammo prices are coming down. I bought 500 rounds of Brown Bear 7.62x39 for $135 apx 6 mos ago. It's $110 now. Could go lower but ????
