Kaiser 7.62x39mm ammunition (brand part no. AM8313) loads a 123-grain full metal jacket bullet in a steel case with non-corrosive primers, giving AK-pattern rifle owners an affordable everyday round without the corrosive-primer maintenance headaches that plagued older combloc surplus ammunition. Steel-cased 7.62x39mm has always run cheaper than brass-cased equivalents, and Kaiser’s non-corrosive priming means a shooter can skip the immediate post-range barrel scrub that corrosive-primed surplus once demanded. That combination of low cost and modern, non-corrosive priming makes this loading a practical choice for high-volume range days with an AK, SKS, or similar 7.62x39mm platform. For 7.62x39mm shooters who want affordable, non-corrosive practice ammunition, this rifle ammunition from Kaiser is built for exactly that.
