    Has Bulgarian 7.62 X 54 MM Ammo Dried Up ??



    I picked up these 2 cases of 880 rounds each of Bulgarian 7.62 X 54 MM ammo a while back. (Bottom 2 cases). Shortly after I did I noticed it wasn't being offered anywhere. Only Com Block Russianicon ammo seems to be avaliable. Has the supply of Bulgarian 7.62 X 54 MM dried up completely? If I knew this was going to happen I would have bought more when I had the opportunity.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Ammunitionstore.com - 7.62x54r Ammo 148gr FMJ Waterproof Spam Can Russian Mfg 440 Rounds for sale! Cheap, low, bulk, wholesale pricing!

    Here you go, as of today the 16th of Dec this says in stock. Call them for sure. I have a bunch of the brass case heavy ball yellow tip from the 50's, and Russian steel light ball from factory 188 with silver tip. Both are accurate in my M39. The brass case ammo is definitely rare now.

    Your link is for Russianicon ammo, not Bulgarian.

    7.62x54r Bulgarian Surplus Ammo in Spam Cans For Sale - 147 gr FMJ Ammunition In Stock

    Circle 10 means Bulgarian. I would call Ammunition Store and tell them to fix their label, because if it is really Russianicon, they have the term Bulgarian prominantly displayed in 2 places on the add, and the can markings in the pic are Bulgarian. Also, you can try Lucky Gunner at new link above. they claim its in stock.

    BTW nice legs.

    Thanks! I think the Bulgarian shoots a little cleaner in my Mosins than the Russianicon stuff for some reason.
