Attention New Members and those new registering!
We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username.
If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7.

Thanks for joining us from the administration.

Well, you can buy these in the former DDR, but they were "Erzeugt in UdSSR" for the East German market.
"Erzeugt in UdSSR" means "Made in the USSR", the former Soviet Union.
The ammo is especially made for "sport shooting" and is not bad at all.
Got a box or two of these myself.

You won't be disappointed Pete.
These worked great in my 91/30.
Let me know how they performed.

Met vriendelijke groet,

Martin

Pete,

Those have "Match" on them, so they will probably be very good. If you shoot some, would you pull one down and see what weight and if they are boat tailed.

Thanks,
Steve
