Russian steel-cased ammo
An American rifle using Russian lacquered ammo? Interesting. I read somewhere that the lacquer they use destroys the chamber faster.
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's too late to stop reading it. My latest tip/trick Visit the Hindi forum here.

Actually, the newest stuff is polymer-coated (I won't run lacquer-coated ammo), although I did find an unspent 7.62x39 steel-cased round at the range that appears to be lacquer-coated, and brought it home, more as a desktop curiosity than anything else.

He meant the casing of the bullet, not the cartridge. I would expect steel cased rounds to fragment more. X|

It's more eco-friendly as the shells rust back into the earth in a shortish time frame, not like those yuppy brass shells that hang around forever.
Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them along with this slice of humble pie, that comes direct from the oven of shame, set at gas mark 'egg on your face'.

The rifle was successfully reassembled, and I even purchased some Russian steel-cased ammo to try in both the rifles, but real life (TM) took precedence once again, and prevented a range visit. Here's hoping the zombie apocalypse doesn't happen before next weekend, when I can run the rifle through its paces.

Heh, it's funny - I didn't get that at all until just now when I happened to re-read my post and see the spelling mistake! I'm getting slower with age... Cheers, Drew.
