Thread: How much 'Zombie' ammo to you have?

I'd like to reload, but the gun dents cases on ejection, so I now need to get my file out and modify it a little. I'm not sure if I can be bothered, considering how cheap some of the 223 ammo is...

Brennos, if you want to reload for the Saiga, you need one of these.

Valmet Ejection Port Buffer, RTG Gun Parts

I got one from him for my Vepr, need to fax an order over or call, with you in 7-10 days.

Ive found a few how-to's, they seem to just file a tang inside the reciever, to slow down the "spin" the case has on ejection. In saying that, getting one of those would be better. I assume it attaches to the upper dust cover thing?

Yep, attaches to the outside of the dust cover with the clip.
See pic.

I haven't seen a 223 that will shoot that barnaul yet.

That Wolf was alright if you can still get it but a bloody hard bullet, works good on deer though.

The Hornady is the best around at the moment that I've found.

A Nice wee song for the holiday break

Don't get many zombies in these parts,
But I have about 700 22 LR CCI, Win and Fed bulk,
400 9mm
250 .38 Spec
50 with wadcutters
150 .357 Mag
and enough to load another 800 9's

Hornady Training gets my vote as the best cheap ammo

Need to get my ammo factory into production and make some $$ then

I bet you could with the mini factory you have. What do you reckon the rounds per minute/hour would be with your Dillon set up?

Does 20 per min or 1200 hr
I can get close to that by hand when loading 9mm if my arm can keep up
