Product Overview
PMC Bronze 7.62x39mm 123gr FMJ ammunition represents the gold standard for shooters who want brass-cased reliability in their AK-platform rifles. With boxer-primed brass cases that are fully reloadable, this ammunition appeals to handloaders looking to maximize their investment. The 2,350 fps muzzle velocity and 1,508 ft-lbs of energy deliver consistent performance whether you're at the range or competing in practical rifle matches.
This ammunition shines for shooters who frequent indoor ranges where steel-cased and bi-metal jacket ammunition is prohibited. The pure copper jacket passes magnet tests, giving you access to facilities that restrict magnetic projectiles. PMC's quality control ensures reliable ignition and consistent velocities, making this an excellent choice for accuracy testing and load development in bolt-action 7.62x39mm rifles like the CZ 527 or Ruger American Ranch.
For defensive preparedness, PMC Bronze offers a step up from budget steel-cased options with cleaner burning powder and more consistent chamber pressures. Reloaders can process the spent brass and develop custom loads tailored to their specific rifles. This ammunition also works well for introducing new shooters to the platform, as the moderate recoil and reliable function build confidence quickly.
