Hi Marion,

Where did you find your sks?

[marion57]

Bought it from a guy on another furum Tex he had two of them and sold them both..sent him a check and guess he hasnt got it yet but am trying to be patient

I don't know what others have been say'n, but I have always had good luck with brown bear. I think it's better than wolf.

Nothing wrong with BB or wolf or the tiger. I like the bear myself, but they are all about the same. Except for the old wolf lacquer stuff which can get a little messy. I think most everything now is the polymer coating though.

Good news the guy is shipping rifle tomorrow or sat>> wont have the 500 by then but bought 80 rnds of BB hp for 5 bucks a box so if the sleet and ice lets up will post and let you know how shhe shoots

Personally, I just shoot wolf (black box). I've shot a little brown bear in the resent past, Cant really tell any difference between them. I wish I could still find Norinco ammo at $1.50 a box. Oh well, I guess those days are gone for ever.

I bought golden tiger from Ammo man 189.00 a case shipped. works great and its new, 07 date, which is when i bought it.

The only experience with Brown Bear ammo is in 9mm. I have very repeatable failures in my S&W Model 39 (in new condition with <300 rounds through it) - fires first shot & ejects; fires second shot & doesn't eject. Split case requires rod to push it out of chamber. However, anecdotal info from various shooters indicates it's a good brand with no mention of 9mm.

Update on Brown Bear ammo!!
Sunday ran 40 rounds of it thro SKS and was fine ammo .. shoots on target as well as I can shoot and no mis fires or hang ups!! 500 rounds for 100 bucks !!
