Olympic ammunition?
I keep seeing the words discontinued by manufacturer. Did something happen to Olympic? Or does anyone know where I can find it? Its probably some of the best priced ss109 5.56x45.

Re: Olympic ammunition?
Greek food, art, culture and architecture? Most certainly.
Greek ammunition? No.
A friend of mine of Greek heritage told me he'd never buy Greek ammo. He once asked me if I ever saw a Greek micrometer to which I answered "no". He then proceeded to show me one by spacing his index finger and thumb about an inch apart.

Re: Olympic ammunition?
I still have 2 boxes (80 rounds) of Olympic 7.62x39 left. Gandermountain had them on sale a couple years ago at a great price. Never had a problem with it, although I was shooting it outta an AK. So just about anything would work.
If I remember right it was M67 or 76 something like that. I believe it is a different grain than Wolf, S/B, etc.
Come to think of it I dunno what the spec is for an atually 7.62x39 military round.

Re: Olympic ammunition?
It is Brass Cased, Non Corrosive but Berdan Primed & Non-reloadable. For the price......it's relatively inexpensive compared to Wolf Gold or Priv! Great for those who don't reload & I don't recommend using anything other than Brass Cased Cartridges particularally through a AR! It will burn dirty!
You may want to check with these Folk, they had an assortment of Calibers at one time.
Note: I just linked the sight, it seems their temporaryly working off line, I suggest calling.
