Question about 30 Luger ammo

Kohaku2416 · 11-21-2007, 03:16 AM

Not to sure if i am in the right forum but here goes...So i keep finding Commercial grade 30 Lugers around here, never 9mm Lugers, unless you count one or two at the gun shows. But I have come across two 30's that are priced pretty nice, I have a 42 Luger in 9mm now, very happy with it. Love the way they shoot

But the thing i am curious about is, does anyone at all manufacture modern 30 luger ammo? i heard winchester does... but i can never find the stuff anywhere. Also why don't any ammo makers make the 30 Luger? i mean people should know guns for it still exist and that people own them.

I got my ammo from Samco. Best prices I found, Finnish military surplus IIRC. $0.30 each.
I am shooting my 7mm in a Luger Postal match this weekend. Mine is a very accurate gun.

I found some new Winchester .30 Luger at Sportman's Warehouse in Colorado but it was $25 for 20 rounds on clearance.

Another source for the Finnish stuff from the 1980's...

Brandon,

I have shot both the Finnish ( Lapua ) and Fiocchi in many of my guns. The Finnish seems to be hotter, and shoots better. I have ordered from both SortsmanGuide and SAMCO and had no trouble with either!

I bought several thousands of rounds of the Lapua stuff about 1.5 years ago when it was running about $ 15.00/50 rounds in quantities of 250.

My UPS guy did not smile at me for nearly 1 month after that delivery...

I love the stuff as well and will have enough to satisify my "habit" for 30 luger until I am in the grave...
