I know of several cartridges made from the 7.62x39 but I've never heard of making it from any other. It would be nice to have one small primers could be used with.

Bob, You do know that Remington 7.62x39mm brass are small rifle primer pockets right?

Do you have to use Lapua? What about Fiocchi -WW or RP? Once Fired Reloadables?

Buy some winchester white box or remington green box at wally world they are fairly cheap and have good reloadable brass.

BTW I've seen brass for sale on gun broker. 8)

Carbineman Yes I do but the newer production isn't, At least some of it isn't I bought two boxes last week and they had large primers, I was disappointed becaused thats (small primer) what I bought them for.

I didn't know that. All the Remington I have is small rifle primer pockets. Whats the appeal for the small rifle primer? I can't tell a difference in performance in my Saigas.
