I love PPU. My LGS Sells me their 8mm Mauser for under $20 a box
Those fuckers stopped making .303 in bulk.
Ok
PPU is the hero we need. Everytime I find some oddball caliber I've been looking for it's from PPU.
For fucks sake I dont think anybody else makes 7.62x38 anymore
>7.62x38
Fiocchi (Italy) does.
Based for making 8x56R but 1.25€ per round hurts a bit
Based PPU keeping milsurp shooters fueled.
Whew, brick store robbery. I bought 200 rounds from SGammo for less than $150 shipped. I just wish PPU sold their hotter 8mm Mauser loads in the US. Being cucked in the states while EU enjoys the good stuff is heart breaking.
Just wish they'd make some 7.5x53.5 Swiss.
When they start making that I'll buy a 1889 in a heartbeat before the prices go up 200 because of ammo availability
I used to buy my 308. in bulk from PPU, great range rounds for cheap fun. Cleaning wasn't ever much of a chore afterwards either. Overall would buy again
>Waiting to buy a gun
I just got the 1896/11 one - ammo is on sale here: edelweissarms dot com
Its gp11 in 60 and 400 amounts - I think also 20 amounts? Not sure
It's a sexy rifle but I don't want wall hangers
manlets cant handle real rifles.
I'm 6'2 buddy
Fiocchi is pretty good, especially for antique pistols.
Gotta work my way through practice on 38spcl and pick up more of their 357. Good prices
Git yourself a press then.
Wait they have hotter loads outside the us? I like that they have ammo available but I don't like having to use the 400m setting to hit at 100 yards
yeah when standing on a ladder.
Comparing their 198 FMJ loads:
>"8x57 IS" 740 M/S, ~2440 FPS
>"8mm Mauser" 665 M/S, ~2180 FPS
Forgot to add:
>Maximum pressure (C.I.P.) 390.0 MPa (56,560 psi)
>Maximum pressure (SAAMI) 241.3 MPa (35,000 psi)
Basically, we get cucked ammo because they think we will blow up old turn of the century mausers not rated for the increased pressure.
PPU, Sellier & Bellot, Magtech and Fiocchi are pretty much my bread and butter. Those guys make everything I want.
PPU and S&B in particular are the only two manufacturers I know of making affordable 7x57 Mauser ammo. Too bad PPU doesn't make any 6.5 Arisaka.
Your barrel might be shot out, my dude. My turk does just fine at 100 with ppu 196 gr sp
Handloads, fellas. You can make some hottter shit if you have a press.
PPU is god tier
S&B takes honorable mention
Nah its fine with surplus
I like Prvi, Geco, and S&B.
Their 8x56r is pretty good. I wish they'd do a run of 7.62x45, but that's probably not going to happen
PPU 8mm has noticeably less recoil than surplus or S&B with comparable bullet weights. It's definitely a weak load.
I should try some of that. I'm a euro so I get PPU's hotloads but my range is 50 meters max so I have to aim way low.
