Prvi Partizan ammunition - Any good?
« on: September 03, 2009, 03:10:32 PM »
while looking for deals for Hornady 139gr SST ammo, (I've yet to fire any using my Rem mod 7 and would like to try some).

I came across the following :
 
Prvi Partizan 7mm-08  PSP Boat tail

$15.99 bx of 20

Question : does anyone have any knowledge or information on this ammo?
What's the quality of the Prvi Partizan ammo?
How can this ammo be priced so cheep? I checked a few other web sites and they all advertise this company's ammo around the same price.
Compared to Hornady its about half the price.

Shoots just fine out of my K-31's.  Brass has been good for reloading as well.  No problems.

Been very good for me in 7.62x54r, 8x57 and 7.5x55. They shoot and group as well as just about any higher priced ammo. The brass is also very good for reloading.

I think part of the reason it's so inexpensive is that it's eastern European manufacture. They just have cheaper over heads and stuff. But it seems to be good stuff nonetheless.

I suppose, but the dollar is worthless relative to European currency. Everything from Europe should cost double what it did 3 years ago.

I bought some Prvi in 380 for my PPKS. It's accurate and shoots clean. No jams whatever.

Only experience I have ever had with it , 1st is with my Nagant. Shot very accurate, but the bullet construction was cheap...not sure what manufacture bullet it was :-\ My 2nd was shooting Wolf Gold...if I am not wrong it is made by Priv.... shot through my Win. M70-270, shot horrible, and the brass was very hard to work with when I reloaded it.
Again just my 2 cents for what it's worth.

Scootrd, I shoot the 9.3 x 62MM Prvi ammo.  It's better at $20 something dollars a box versus the Norma at $60 something dollars a box.  The bullets, at least in this caliber perform beautifully on game (So far a whitetail & an Orxy) and are extremely accurate.  The only problem I see with them is their factory blew up recently and they may not be making any more.  I think Prvi ammo. is great.  IMHO  Blowtorch
