Bulk 7.62x54R?

[TruxLupus]

Got myself a cheap 91-30, I'm wondering if any stores in the NE Indiana area (Fort Wayne, maybe?) carry bulk 7.62x54R, and what it might cost. I'm looking to buy 880 (2 tins of 440) for under $200. Any tips? Thanks!

And yes I know all about it being corrosive and what you have to do to clean it - the 91-30 is so easy to tear down and re-assemble I'm pretty sure I could do it in my sleep after just doing it once :3. $1.25+ per round is too expensive to shoot and I'd like to shoot it a lot .

Stryker Action up in the Stroh area has some I don't remember price but I bought 440 from him.

This is about as cheap as you will find, it may be cheaper with shipping than you local shops.
At 19.8 cents per round before shipping you will have a hard time beating that.

I thought I asked this earlier but I must have messed up the post on my cell.

Is all the 7.62x54R bulk in the 440rd tins the corrosive stuff? I thought I had bookmarked some that looked like all the rest but the site claimed it to be non-corrosive.

Thank, Matt

Everything in 7.62x54R I've seen in a tin is corrosive.

Wow that's $25 cheaper than what I paid through Sportsman's about 6 weeks ago. I might have to order another batch.

You can get modern non-corrosive stuff, but it generally comes in 20 rd boxes and is closer to a buck per round.

I would like to use the cheap corrosive ammo and clean the gun good afterwards, but if I can't get the ammo I need I'll buy reloadable ammo then reload to what I need. That is where I'm at now I have a sniper rifle that only likes heavy ball ammo 200 gr. up spitzer boat-tail rounds.
After shooting this should make some good reloads.
