    Military ammo

    Is it getting harder to find military ammo nowadays e.g. .303 7.62x51 or am I looking the wrong places? Where is the best place to get it

    Guncity had Greek military 303 available ?
    I think they had it on TM, as well.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Yes it is, I went looking for military 5.56 ball after I bought an AR 15. No joy, so I reloaded ex mil Radway Green brass with FMJ'S.

    I imagine gun shows are a good place to find it. Either that, or knowing somebody who is sitting on a stash, and will kick some of it loose.
