Re: Reloading 7.62x39
What primers do you use? I've seen recommendations from CCI 200, CCI 250, CCI M34... The 200 and 250 are easy to find around here, but M34 I haven't been able to find anywhere.

Re: Reloading 7.62x39
You can use either of the CCI large rifle primers (200 or 250). Good luck finding 34s in retail stores. Winchester large rifle primers are also ok. Stay away from all Remington primers and Winchester small rifle primers in semi-autos. The cups are too soft and the unsupported firing pins have been known to cause slam fires. Bad juju.
FYI - Remington brass uses small rifle primers. CCI400 or CCI450 are fine.Soap Box - Worn out : Ballot Box - Broken : Jury Box - Pending : Ammunition Box - Unknown

Re: Reloading 7.62x39
I too am just starting to load the 7.62x39 (since wolf more than doubled in price since the last time I bought it)
I found that http://www.bluestarbrass.com/catalog/ is a little pricy for the brass, but has stuff in stock. They also carry the bullets at, what I think, is fairly reasonable.
ETA: Widener's has IMI brass @ $176/1k right now http://wideners.com/itemdetail.cfm?i...78|282|286|384Last edited by xdfireguy; February 18th, 2009 at 11:48 PM. Reason: Found better deal
