Found some on AuctionArms from Liberty Tree Collectors. CL is a great guy to deal with. He'll combine shipping and offer you more than what is listed in the auction if you want. I bought some and it ended up at about 45 cents a round shipped. Great looking ammo. Have not tried it yet, but from what has already been said, looking forward to it.

I checked the CIA website, and it still lets you order:

I've got a few bandoliers of the FN stuff, it's good ammo!
I've shot one bandolier and put the other away and keep banging away with the HXP brass cased reloads.
And now with the South African brass until the berdan primers are used up.

Looks like it is all sold. I just got off the phone and there is no more left. Those who hesitate...................

I pulled a round for inspection. Given the rain/snow forecast, I don't see myself making it to the range anytime soon. Just for comparison is my personal favorite South African below.

That looks like a bunch of good ammunition. I doubt anything can be as bad as the POF stuff from Pakistan. After you try some of it out, please report back here on what your thoughts are on it. Any hang fires? How accurate is it? and such. As for corrosive, I always consider milsurp ammo as corrosive unless I definately know for a fact that it isn't. It isn't worth the risk and it only takes a few more seconds to clean for corrosive ammo and have peace of mind.

And I...

I'll bet it's Berdan, non-corrosive. That's some nice looking ammo, and with the price of .303 nowaday's, that really isn't bad.

I just got 300 rounds of Portuguese .303 British Ball from Century today. Ended up being 37 cents a round after shipping. A little expensive, but there doesn't seem to be much else available on the market right now. I'm planning to get out and target / chrono it. Once I do I'll post my results. Upon initial appearance it looks pretty nice. We'll see..........
