Is there a purpose for this other then shooting vampires?

What can you use wooden bullets for? And after you shoot 100 rounds and your barrel is hot, will they catch on fire on their way out? :)

Wifey said I can buy some ammo for my birthday so I was shopping around and I found this for sale. Can't find 7.62x39 anywhere cheaply.

I think it was used as a training round if I remember correctly. Cheaper than metal during war time. Towards the end of WW2 the russians also had mostly wooden tanks.

I know that wood bullets have been used in the past in the Pentagon by Security and the US Marshalls office so that if a bullet was fired in the Pentagon it would not harm the impossible to replace marble. (Italian marble quarry was closed after construction completed)

Wood bullets have also been used by the US Marshalls office before there were Sky Marshalls on domestic and international flights for fear of rapid decompression explosion caused by a real bullet. (before proven false)

(Information given to me by a retired US Marshall)

Russians use it for training on weapons handling and basic skills

Sure, that's what they want you to think. The truth is they don't want vampires in the Pentagon, on airplanes, or anywhere else, except of course for the IRS.

Rumor is they don't cycle well without the blank firing adapter that shreds them upon exiting the barrel

Throwing one per mag in at random would be great training for misfires.

Thanks. I had seen that one, but wanted a good price on 500 rounds.(really I wanted a ridiculously low price or to find them all ridiculously high so I couldn't buy them at all)

When I opened up your link chickiebits saw it and told me to buy them. normally I'd say YAY! 1000 rounds of fun, but I'm trying to pay off some bills and don't want to buy them. I'm sure I'll be happy when they get here, and happier when I can shoot them, but I've only had 2 days off all month and I'm working to pay bills, and here she is making me buy ammo. All because it was my birthday. I don't have the heart to tell her, fine you want me to buy them, but who's going to have to deliver more fu%^ing pizzas to pay for them? Already had to go to 17-25 hours a week to pay all my bills on time and get some things paid off. Now I'll have to work even more to pay for ammo. Sometimes that woman drives me nuts!

Years ago they had Swedish 6.5X55mm Training rounds. For sale..

You can't shoot too many of these rounds through any firearm without getting a serious case of wood fouling inside the barrel.

No, its true; I've seen it. You can look it up.

so does that mean you have to use termites to clean you barrel?[ROFL1][ROFL2][ROFL3]

[Sixgun]

I use it for vampires. It also works on zombies but you have to hit them in the woody.
