Ammunition advice please.

You’ve bought the cheapest ammunition on the market and you expect match quality?

Oh bugger does it not work like that then

Funny, I have spent plenty of money in my time on expensive rubbish. I gave up. I am reloading. Bought shed loads of the cheap PPU, pulling the bullets and reloading with good powder and decent projectiles. They are now a brilliant round.

So you threw away the powder and the bullets, kept the cases, reloaded but you’re still shooting cheap as chips PPU?

I don’t think you have quite grasped the concept of buying decent factory ammo.

Thank you. Interesting idea. Bought them from a dealer who had purchased them as bankrupt/closing down stock. Anything possible but cartridge cases and packaging appear virgin. Suck'em and see I guess.

If you could be sure both offerings were factory loaded, id say go ahead and shoot them, but note potential differences in poi of course, and keep them separated if that should be notable.

Personally I would not shoot them if I could not be sure that they're factory loaded and I didnt know and trust who reloaded them if they're not.

Works for me and at £11.00 a box it is a quick answer that ties in with other things i do. It probably would not work for real live grown-ups like you. But this post is now months old and I have learned a great deal more about loading, ballistics, my rifles and my capabilities, since posting originally. Besides, the brass is good stuff and I have buckets of it, having kept it all since starting 20yrs ago. Try finding good 25-06 cases. Not easy.I
Obviously if you have endless money and are happy relying on the availability of a chosen factory round, these are points that won't be of interest to you. So that makes me think you are just bored and looking for a bite.
