How many brands of ammo in the US have an origin in Russia?

[BarryinIN]

I’m not sure now that you mention it.  Some comes from the Ukraine, like Century Arms’ “Red Army” brand.  I tend to forget that some of these places aren’t “Russia” anymore   

Brown/Silver/Golden Bear is Barnaul, which is Russia.   Wolf and TulAmmo are in Tula, which is Russia.   Those make up a lot of it.
