Any reason the real military 5.45X39mm ammo is not being
imported? As there is no handgun that I know of for this
round, the ammo cannot be classified as armor piercing by
ATF regs. So whats the excuse for importing all this "Lead
core sporting ammunition" crap?

Any way to get a hold of the bullet itself (not the whole
loaded round) and reload using some brass case rounds? Hey
Cole distributers, hope you are reading this!

Heard using the steel core miltary bullet makes this
perhaps the most lethal small arms round ever designed, due
to severe bullet instability upon soft target impact. I
trust AKs much more than my jam-o-matic AR-15s and want as
great a stopping round as the SS-109 for it. Easy answer is
the real miltary 5.45X39 round which seems to be
unavailable.
