Any surplus 7.62x25 ammo out there?

I picked up a Romanian TT before I looked to see if I could feed it.

If you reload, then watch for Boxer primed. About 6 cents a round more and it's not corrosive (which is not a big deal).

Thanks, it has sure gone up. I reload but am getting tired of chasing brass from semi autos so was hoping some cheap surplus was still around. A friend offered me a 1260 rd tin of Polish for $150 that he's been sitting on for years with nothing to shoot it in. Think I'll give him $200 and kiss him on both cheeks.

There you go!

I just bough a Romanian TT not too long ago. I've been watching for surplus myself, but I think "those were the days!" :vsad:

I saw a 1260 rd tin in the shotgun news from 2005 that was priced so low that it seemed like a misprint. Something like 40 bucks? Can't remember exactly at the moment

Not that long ago it was cheaper than 22LR. These days that's not saying much though.

Thanks for the help. The tin I bought from my friend will last me long enough to decide if the pistol is a keeper. Though any time I see re-loadable close to $20 a box I'll stock up on principal.

A little bird told me that there is 35,000 rounds on a boat coming our way. Polsh. My lips are sealed.

Ahhh, but at what price I wonder. Most of the recent ads have been within a few cents of commercial. still, I'll be watching for the ads.
