20 Rounds of 124gr FMJ 7.62x39 Ammo by Norma

Sweden and Russia have squared off in at least a dozen wars going as far back as the 12th century. It is good to see some growing spirit of unity as Norma, which is based in Åmotfors, produces 7.62x39 Russian ammunition. World peace is within reach!

This really is the most fundamental type of ammunition you could want for an AK-47 or SKS. It is a step up from the kind of ammo Russia typically cranks out because it is brass-cased. It’s poised to leave your action a good deal cleaner, and along with its non-corrosive Boxer primers offers a great opportunity to handload the Russian round.

This round’s bullet weighs in at a conventional 124 grains, and is a full metal jacket. Not optimal for hunting anything larger than varmints, though still good for self-defense when soft point or polymer-tipped bullets are unavailable. Norma’s bullets contain zero steel and are completely nonmagnetic, so the rangemasters at selective indoor ranges won’t scoff at this ammo.
