what type of 8mm ammo do you guys use in M48A's?

I have been using Olympic 180 grain and some Turkish mil-surp ammo with varying degrees of accuracy. I am able to keep them both inside 5" at 100yds, but would like to try to do better. Are there any...

I really dislike having to remember the sight holdoffs to get in the black with various rifles so I usually use the ammo the rifle was intended for. The Yugo ammo from Centerfire systems has been very...

SOG also has the Yugo 8mm surplus for a pretty good price, 2 cases of 900 rounds for $102 plus shipping. I have found it to shoot very well for milsurp.

I found that 8mm comes in two weight in general- 196-198 gr. and 154 gr. How about some comments on which is better in the M48A? Is the rifling the same in all M48 variations and all country variants?...

I dont remember the metric twist rate for an M48/M48A its in my data somewhere. The Yugo issue ammo was the heavy ball type 196-198 gr. My lot from Centerfire Systems is very accurate.The rifling...

I understand Norma makes a good 8mm, but too much $$$ for me. I stick to milsurp.

Im not aware of anyone offering 8mm match ammo for sale although I would not put it past some advertiser in Shotgun News to claim it.I did an experiment awhile back with handloads in 8mm and compared...

Ok, I looked at J&G and they have a good amount of variety. Only thing I didn't like is that they don't let you send your license, like ammoman.com does, so you have to be there to sign. Most of...

See if a neighbor will accept delivery for you and leave a sign on the door for the deliveryman.

I've been happy with the Olympic ammo myself? Personally my schedule seldom leaves me time go to the range and then spend time cleaning so I've never used the corrosive mil-sup?Has anyone used the...
