Hi only found an old post about quality / experience of PPU ammunition. Just ordered some to try in my .270. Anyone a regular user and what do you think?

 

[Si]

I used 100 rounds to condition the barrel on my Howa when it was new, best grouping was 2" at 100mtrs. ​Then I reloaded all the brass.

Edit: (5 shot groups) always seemed to get 1 flyer in every group

 

[FrenchieBoy]

I used to use it in my .243 and found that the group that I was getting was perfectly acceptable. The plus side of Partizan ammunition is that even if you just use it for running in a new barrel after you have fired it once the brass is quite good quality for reloading!

I wanted to try some, but even though Kranks told me they had some in, and I drove 30 miles, the shelf had none on it,

but the computor said they had some...........

 

[stratts]

Yep use them in both my Brno ZKK601 .243 and .308 and group very well indeed.

My Savage 110 in 22-250 wasn't so accurate though so it may be right what they say about european rifles liking european ammo and vice versa with the states!!

 

[Cris]

Yeah I wanted it to zero with rather than burning more expensive rounds as I had a stock problem that I think is now fixed.

 

[Dakaras]

Use it in 243 and it groups well

 

[Simjim33]

If your rifle likes it. It is cheaper and Less work than reloading.

Great stuff

My rifle likes it.

Happy days.

I think that any sp ammo that's half the price of premium ammo, goes bang and the deer falls over as you would expect is a smart buy. You can shoot more for the price paid and check on paper without the burn of shiny box prices

 

[Pedro]

Ah. I was under the impression that all they produced were FMJ ammunition and was therefore not ideal for shooting live targets, but a quick glance at their website shows they do soft points too.

 

[Craggy]

I kept getting the old flyer at the targets with 308 ( the more I put down the barrel, the more I hated them )

they just made took all my confidence, use Hornaby SST now and never shot so good

Thanks

use it in .308 and 7.5x55, buy the FMJ's shoot them and then reload, they work very well as reloads, have to be honest and say I haven't used their SP's but I have reloaded the same cases 6-8 times now now with no problems, although I annealed them at 5 firings.

The .308 PPU shoots well in my Sako varmint, or at least the batch that purchased. Good brass for reloading.
The only way that you will know is if you try some and see, as we all know that no two rifles are the same even from the same manufacturer.

 

[Jonher]

I use the 175 grain FMJ in my 30-06 and it groups under 1 inch,

I used it in my last competition here in Norway and came second so can't complain, beat my mate who was using home loads!

I haven't tried the soft points for hunting but have friends who speak very highly of the GROM bullets.

 

[Munty_Hunter]

Used to find them quite accurate in my Howa 243 but stopped using it as expansion on foxes didn't seem good enough but fine for Deer.

 

[swagger700]

I use 180 grain soft points out of my heym 30.06 half inch groups . And 13 quid a box stop deer for fun brass is ok for loading as well

 

[gmart122]

People seem to get mixed results from them. I've never had much luck. I find the brass ok. I reload .303 with Prvi heads and can't tell the difference between those and Sierras. The gun will only ever do 2MOA on a very good day, then there's my input.

 

[gixer1]

I was getting around 1 1/2" groups with PPU in 30-06 (180gr SP's) and around an inch in 243 (100gr sp's) I wouldn't have thought there will be any problem using them for stalking in most rifles at sensible ranges.

Gixer

 

[hairlesshunter]

Very good in my 223

 

[The tramp]

The 168gr .308 match hpbt shoot bugholes out of my Sako M591 Varmint.
The sp are about 1 1/2" in the same rifle in .243.
​The 50gr sp do less than 1/2" from my Tikka 595 .222
