1000rds – 7.62x39 Kaiser 123gr. FMJ Ammo

Kaiser 123 Grain Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) Ammo Details

Look up the word “Kaiser” and you’ll see a bunch of photos of German emperors and delicious bread rolls. But there’s yet another important Kaiser you should know about. Perhaps it is even the most important Kaiser, because the brand stands for agreeably priced Turkish-made 7.62x39 ammunition.

If you’ve already experienced what Russian manufacturers like Tula and Wolf had to offer, then you know what to expect from these AK/SKS cartridges. Each is loaded with a steel case: cheaper than brass, not reloadable, and in this instance lacquered for added protection against moisture in storage. Each case is outfitted with a Berdan primer: compatible with all rifles, and devoid of chemicals that corrode steel.

We saved the most important aspect of this ammo for last. Its 123 grain full metal jacket projectiles are made of three different metals: lead core, steel jacket, copper-washed surface. Naturally, its steel jacket would have the FMJ attract a magnet, and thereby precludes it for use at certain gun ranges. If your range throws a fit over magnetic ammunition, then Kaiser won’t meet their standards.
