Hope this helps, there are several other mauser variants in 8mm as well as 7 and some 6.5 swede, etc. All of those are also non-corrosive. Midway has a lot of ammo as does cheaper than dirt.
Sorry, just noticed the I, I had a friend who found some at a gun show in Texas...might try that...I feel smart:banghead:
AIM had some surplus stuff nice but corosive but it is not that big of a deal yugo linked 197 grain ball the stuff i got was 81 ynn head stamp, i have not had one not go bang
wideners has 196 gr yugo 900 per case=$450 OUCH. The days of cheap surplus 8x57MM are long gone.
