    Best ammo for Mosin Nagant in So Cal?

    I'm new to guns and this site. I did a fair amount of research on buying and whatnot but was over excited when buying my ammo for the new Mosin i just bought. I currently have 880 rounds of steel core 7.62x54rs lying around that I can't shoot in my area.

    So my question is what ammo is better for So Cal for (no steel core, bi-metal, and steel casing) this particular rifle? And if possible I'd like to find the cheapest one around. Thanks guys

    well a Mosin will probably eat anything and ask for seconds. but some ranges don't like steel cased or Bi-metal ammo. find the cheapest brass cased stuff you can find and enjoy.

      you can shoot this



      it depends on where you live if you can buy ammo online and ship to you.

          Ukrainian 7.62x54R 147gr TMJ

          Palmetto State Armory just delivered me a 440rd spam can of Ukrainian 7.62x54R 147gr TMJ, for only $76.99 + shipping.

          The TMJ bullet (Total Metal Jacket) is allowed in most indoor ranges because it completely covers the bullet; no lead particles go into the air. But I think it's probably a bi-metal jacket, so some outdoor ranges won't allow it (sparks when it hits metal or rocks).

                LA county is generally okay; it's the City of Los Angeles that is an issue ordering stuff. If you live in the City of LA, the first thing to do is move if you want to have guns.

                  Its been pretty dry out these days, weeks, months, years. Wait until we get some rain and just take it out to BLM land south of Ridgecrest with your ammo
                  It takes a lot of balls to play golf the way I do.

                        If your address says Canoga Park and your zip code is not the same as a LA city. You should be OK.

                          You could email them your address first to see if they can ship to you.
