Has anyone used this ammo from Samco?

What's your opinion of it? The non-corrosive aspect has me intrigued.

I would treat the ammo as corrosive, no matter what "they" say.

I have shot Egyptian and Turk 8mm and cleaned my bore immediately with Windex at the range while the barrel was still hot.

Yeah, I wouldn't trust their word on that.

Ditto really non-corrosive out of Iran in the 50's, but corrosive out of east europe in the 70's
multi-corrosivo, for sure

I wonder if the primers are reliable or if they are hard like the Yugo surplus...

Wow, what a great looking crate..but dang 30cent a round ...little steep for me untill I hear more reports on how it does..The egyption stuff was pretty hit or miss

I wonder how they got ahold of that stuff?? talk about rifles with a tale to tell..next theyll have it coming with a box of Cuban cigars

The ad says the 8mm is corrosive. It is the 30-06 that they are touting as non-corrosive.

The ad was changed. Last week it read "non-corrosive", as I pasted above. Oh well...

looking at their ak ammo....
why is it cheaper on clips then off?

[Super B]

Funny how they didn't change their PRICE when they changed from N/C to corrosive......
