    There seems to be better and much more powerfull ammo today, whe shooting from pistols I notice that almost every brand seems to have a different color when fired? I tried about five different types of 22 mag in my revolver and some were blue-white others were an orange was it the short barrell or what? even some of the same brands were of a different color? as in the Winchester, the Dynapoint and Super X seemed completely different, then in the 38 the Silvertip ammo was a blue white color? on some ballastic tests through some wet phone books there was a big difference in results??????????

    Can someone tell me what the correct name is of the 12 gauge ammo used by farmers to scare geese off of their fields? I thought the name was Crack R Shot but I can't find that anywhere. And where I can purchase it..
    Thank you

    What is the difference between a 7.62x39 bullet and a 7.62x54 bullet? Sorry, it's just been bugging me, also, what are the good and bad points about the different types of ammo, such as FMJ and Soft-Point, Hollow Point, Copper Tipped and stuff. Thanks.

    I have ammo stored in old military cans.

    If I move it into a room where temperature may reach below 32, am I causing a problem?

    This will be winter only and maybe 15 to 20 days max.

    What country makes the best Nato spec ammo?

    If I'm wrong please correct me, I won't be offended.

    I have some old .22 and shotgun ammo in original boxes I am thinking of selling. Does this have to be done thru licensed agents? Can I advertise it and sell to the public at large ( 18 yrs. and older of course )?

    which is best for 9mm usage, 115jhp,125 jhp,115 round nose does it matter or is it all on the shooters ability to perform?

    mostly for personal& HOME defence, then for target practice I ask because of the fact that some say practice with what u use to protect
    self& home.


    thanks for the input

    Any ideas where I can purchase amunition for a Winchester Model 1903 .22 Cal Automatic Rifle. I believe the ammo for this rifle is bigger in diameter than regular .22 ammo. .22 long rifle will split the casing and expand in the chamber and not eject. I have heard that some ammo manufacturers make runs of outdated ammo now and then for sale.

    Is it legal to sell ammo as a private party at a gun show? I was given a couple boxes for a caliber I don't have and figured I try and sell it.

    Thanks.

    I have come across a few pieces of ammo that i can't identify. I am no expert so help me out. Here's the description. It is rifle ammo in a brass casing. Stamped on the primer end is W R A 62 and a stamp that resembles a circle with one verticle line and one horzontal line. The primer has a tinge of red on it. the bullet end seems to have red wax in it. Is it a tracer or maybe a blank?

    Where is the cheapest place to buy brass-cased, non-corrosive ammo for my ar-15 chambered in .223. I dont want any steal cased ammo. I also dont plan on reloading this round. I would like to buy half a case or a full case. FMJ or SP. Thanks for your time and help.

    In all likelihood, you have a US Military 30-06 blank cartridge. Red paper over the powder.

    Hi,

    I think what you may have is a blank made by Winchester Repeating Arms Co., Bridgeport, CT manufactured in 1962. The circle with the cross is a Nato designation. The cartridge may therefore be a 7.62x51 Nato blank. It could also be a grenade firing blank but compare to the picture below.

    Thanks, I have held on to these for five years wondering what they were. Does the 62 stamp mean the date? I am assuming thats where you got the 1962. and now I know what the circle is. Thanks again

    loyphillips - yes, the "62" is the two digit date code for 1962. The US military doesn't concern itself with the four digits because "86" will be on either copper-cased .45-70 ammo or brass cased 5.56x45 / 7.62x51. If the ones you have feature the faux "bullet" seen in the photo, it is a standard blank (the "bullet" was added to improve feeding / chambering in full auto mode). If it lacks the "bullet," it is likely a grenade blank.
