CZ527 in 7.62x39

[DAL]

I got a reply to my e-mail to CZ about their soon-to-be-sold Model 527 in 7.62x39. They said the barrel will be 18.5" and the bore diameter will be .308.

My questions to you: Will a .308 bore preclude my using the cheap foreign-made ammo available out there? Also, if I must handload for this rifle, does anyone know where I can get some boxer-primed brass? The places I've looked don't seem to carry it.

Thanks,
DAL

I would vote not to use 7.62x39 surplus with .311 bullets. It can be done but acc is bad and pres can get high. Most places around me like k-mart, wal-mart,ect, sell 7.62x39 made by Rem and others. It is a popular round for deer here in WI.
