I think one of my favorite parts of mine is just how good the non corrosive surplus ammo is.

Well the surplus ammo is basically match ammo. They still make it from what I understand.

Excellent rifles. I gave up paying for the surplus ammo for these things and I just reload now. Takes a bit of messing around but once you figure how deep to see the bullet it runs just fine.

Rack the bolt with a quick snap and the empty casings will fly over your head.

Rack the bolt PeeWee Herman style and they will land on top of your head.. :D
