Title: S&B ammo green box 7.62x39: What bullet type?
Post by: Boris Badinov on August 19, 2018, 03:55:08 PM
Anyone know if the projectiles are styled after the  m67 or the m43?

Thanks,
Boris B

Sorry man, I got nothing.  Likely similar in bullet composition to the 7.62x45 used in the VZ52s. 

You score at the gun show this weekend?

Thanks, anyways.

Acquired 30 boxes locally for a good deal.

The Czech bxn/S&B military spec ammo was called 7.62-43, so at least the old milsurp ammo was M43 👍🏼 I’m not sure about the more recent commercial ammo.
