This popped up in my YT feed.
Guy is reporting of at least two guns (M1A & a ZASTAVA M77) going kaboom while firing ZSR 7.62x51 M80 Lot # 015
So be aware
Another Report of a Gun EXPLODING at the Range. ZSR Ammo Was Used.

2 more kabooms with ammo from lot 15
Still no reply from ZSR
Lot 15 strikes again. We are now up to FOUR rifles blowing up / exploding while using ZSR 7.62x51mm 147 grain ammo. DO NOT SHOOT THIS AMMO IF IT IS IN YOUR POSSESSION. There is a chance you can get injured or even killed.
FOUR GUNS DESTROYED WHILE USING THIS AMMO (ZSR 7.62x51- LOT 15)

Is zsr some kind of established brand? I mean this is why I stay away from brands ive never heard and never buy the cheapest ammo I can find.
Am I crazy for spending a few pennies more for ammo I think I can trust? I mean I understand no ammo should ever do this but if you dont care enough to buy decent ammo then…

Turkish ammo.
They've been around for awhile and I believe make NATO ammo. Every company has made a bad batch but quite worrisome ZSR hasn't responded with no recalled issued yet.

So youve seen this out of most manufactures through the years, difference being a speedy recall.
Interesting.

Google ammo recalls or just take a peek at the ones posted in this section, pretty much every manufacturer has had one or more. Getting ready to post another.
ZSR should have at least replied by now
I wonder how many KBs we haven't heard about

Well folks, it finally happened.
I was contacted by a user of ZSR 7.62x51 LOT 15 who not only had a catastrophic failure of their rifle, but sustained injuries to the point they had to be AIRLIFTED TO THE HOSPITAL.
At the moment I am only able to report this much, as I am waiting on more info. Please standby.
