Info regarding corrosive ammo please

it does because the soviets have been know to use corrosive primers as little as a couple of years ago.

Which is why they chrome-plate the bores of AKs.

If one has a batch of suspect ammo in-hand, testing is a relatively straightforward process. Pull a bullet and dump the powder, and fire the primer such that the residue is deposited on a brightened piece of steel like a lawn mower blade or some bar stock hit with a wire brush or angle grinder. Can be useful to similarly fire some known non-corrosive and corrosive primers as controls on nearby spots. After a few days, you'll know. It doesn't hurt to bring the steel into areas of higher humidity, such as the bathroom while someone showers.

Done similar process given to me by board member here. I put a standard steel nail in a board and fired live primer over it. If corrosive will begin to rust within a day if any humidity at all. In my case it was 303 ammo.
