That reminds me, has anyone tried the blue plastic 7.62 NATO training ammo that is for sale? Due to the near non-availability of regular ammo, I have been seriously thinking about getting some.

A guy over on HK-Pro bought a 1000 rounds and the HK lightened bolt carrier/no roller bolt. Of course he was using it in a G3, but he said it was a blast to shoot and more accurate than you'd think. Dan's Ammo was selling 1000 rounds and the special G3 bolt/carrier for $299.00.

I looked on Dan's site and didn't see it listed so he must be out.

That website (http://www.municion.org/762x51/762x51.htm) has a lot of good .308 /7.62x51 info on European cartridges that I had not seen before. thanks for sharing

But it's an HK bolt carrier which won't work in the CETME right?

No it won't without some serious modification of the Cetme. What you could do is buy a Cetme bolt and carrier, lighten the carrier a bunch by milling it down and remove the rollers out of the bolt head. That's pretty much what the HK practice bolt is.

That's an idea. $75 for a new bolt/carrier group plus the ammo is cheap enough to make that an overall savings for plinking.

Wonder if the plastic ammo would be good for home defense at close ranges? :)

I'm kicking around buying some of that plastic stuff for shooting in the FR-8. I figure a bolt gun won't care .
