Anyone know of where any 7.62X38 Pistol ammo might be found?
There are very few probablms that can't be solved with explosives.

J&G Sales and RGuns as well. The stuff R Guns has is russian military, 14 rnds for 8 bucks, I have heard that it is loaded  very hot, I should order some and try it. I have been using hot shot brand from J&G lately. It is pretty mild, might even try it on grouse this year.

Online dealers Grafs and Midway have PRVI and Fiocchi brands which are boxer primed reloadable brass if that interests you.

Aim Surplus has the prvi partizan brand of 7,62 nagant ammo thats 50rds for $21.  I believe that southern ohio gun (SOG) has the hotshot brand of the 7,62 nagant ammo too.

Glad to see that Prvi is producing as well. Three manufacturers of this cartridge could help keep the price down. Sounds like Fiochi might have to lower their prices a bit to stay competative. Prvi at $21 and hotshot at $25, Fiochi at $30 plus,  Hmmmm  ;)

My russian nagant ammo arrived yesterday from RGUNS and its tapered at the front.  I've seen the other 7,62 nagant ammo have a square crimp on the nose. Does it matter?

Its russian ammo in small gray unmarked boxes with 14rds in each box.  The boxes are very similair to the 7,62x39 russian ammo from many years ago.

7.62x38r is a rimmed pistol round.  For a lot of information go to Google and ask for   nagant man

The tapered case is the original design, not the heavy crimp
like the fiocchi. I wish they all would go with the tapered
case. then they would not split so badly and could be reloaded
more times.
