I'd have left the Russian bit off may sell a bit quicker as some on here may not approve

This is the good stuff. I'm already at limit with it but this stuff makes a good boom!

Shame your not closer!

Yep, shame you aren't passing Durham / I was passing Glasgow any time soon. Already have a few of these and could use a top up. Work well in my Nagant!

The 188 is the ammunition plant designation and the other number is the year it was made. I can't make out the year number in the pic but it's good old Russian made (188) steel core light ball

Why steel core?

 

[viking90]

Why steel core?

Because it was cheaper than using alot of lead. Like the jacket is bimetal copper washed and the case copper washed steel

These old milsurp rounds go great through mine too, just wish I was closer. Just need boiling water to flush the barrel if you are paranoid about corrosive primers.
