Kyrie and Jack, my 7.62x25 ammo is headstamped, 1990.

Kyrie,

I have four boxes of 7.62 x 25 Tokarev put up by winchester. Very new looking, must be a new item in their line. I picked them up at a gun show for a very reasonable price. I haven't tried it yet, but coming from Winchester I'd worry more about it being underloaded than overloaded. Either way, it should be reasonably consistent. Boxer primed too.

Gentlemen:

Perhaps you may find this ammo interesting. It is an original, sealed box of DWM 7.63 Mauser ammo from around the beginning of the last century.

The patronen number 403 was also used by BKIW/DWM for its Borchardt ammo, and, as Ron Wood noted in a previous post, both C96 and C93 ammo appear to have used the same bullet number 203.

Regards,
Gene

Hi Unspellable,

Be a little careful with that ammunition. It was not made by Winchester, but by S&B in the Czech Republic. There is some question as to whether or not S&B 7.62x25 ammunition is C.I.P. compliant.

Warm regards,

Kyrie
