    Russians make a decent ammo... as far as consistency and straightness... etc. I was surprised when I really dug into some and measured everything....

    But they drop the ball on the bullet. The bullets suck. Had they put good bullets in their ammo, not too many people would buy American .223.

    Right when the word hit that imports were being banned I paid $5.99 a box for Tula 124gr 8M3.

    So far, the standard wolf, silver bear etc seems to be holding at $230 a case before shipping.

    Tula 8M3 is getting harder to find and Golden Tiger seems to be wiped out (sucks).

    What are you seeing as far as price increases go?

    Wish I could keep buying more and more Russian ammo but I'm getting tired of this game especially right on the heels of 7n6 being banned.

    Gonna go drool over SB-15 equipped AR pistols now

    The Russian companies I suspect will sell it to a third party in another country that will package it as made somewhere else.

    No hard data, it just seems like there are a lot less listings on gunbot under the "good deal threshold."

    Hate the fluctuations. Wish I had the $ to buy more than I needed and then stop looking at the prices.

    Oh well it has driven me to reloading so that's a win.

    Soon you will be addicted to hunting brass and trying to keep up with the empty cases.

    These Russian primers are superior to Winchester etc, or the same level of performance for a lower price?
