Best ammo for Mosin Nagant in So Cal?

[dotfortune]

PPU ammo is good to go. I've shoot them out of my Mosin and can hit the 200 yrs steel targets at Angeles.

Since it's raining, call Burro Canyon up in Azusa. They allow bimetal ammo after a good rainstorm. Just call to confirm first so you don't make a futile trip.

Good call on Burro, forgot about them since it's been ridiculously dry, prior to this week.

Pretty much any 900.. (City of Los Angeles) zip is red flagged for ammo shippers.

It's funny how that works. When I lived in Culver City which is completely surrounded by Los Angles city, I could have ammo mailed to my address. Zip was 902..

Have fun with your classic rifle!

you have to decide on where you want to shoot. if you want to goto a shooting range most require non steel core which is what most all surplus ammo is. if you want to goto blm and shoot buy surplus if you want to goto a range it will cost you more

How was your experience at Angeles? As a new shooter, I'm looking for a place to take out my M44, and ammo isn't a concern (have a spam can, but I also grabbed some PPU to shoot). Anything you'd recommend or advise?

When I went I had a decent time. Didn't get bothered by the guys working there and they were kind enough to inform me of some of my faults. They definitely check your ammo but once they see you have PPUs (at least in my experience) they'll just leave you alone.
