Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Prvi Partizan, Pleasant surprise

Above mentioned pistol was a Glock. Who made the second one?

I have used their stuff in 6.5x55, 7x57, and 8x57.

Also run their bullets in my 280 AI for FF'n, and just bought 500-100 gr 257s for mine & my son's Bobs. CHEAP; $108 shipped & "rounded up"!

two different Glocks. one third gen and one fourth gen.

I got a 9.3x62 a while back. PP was the only brass i could lay hands on without going the really expensive European stuff. It looks and weighs out good enough. I will see how it shoots in a few days.

I've used it in 6.5X55, 6.5X57, and 9.3X62. Was not always the best, but did pretty well considering the price and the cartridges it is available in. Great for reloads later.. Had some Starline 38 Special brass do the same thing (cracked) on its first loading in my S&W Model 52 with 148g HBWC and Bullseye, Starline said it was due to an issue with a low load of a fast burning powder. (detonation shock) They did send several cases as a replacement.

Two batches of PRVI 9.3X62 brass have been outstanding for me. One batch of 50 have been fired 14 times with no cases lost, good accuracy also.

I bought a few boxes in 8�57 to use the brass for reloading. Some of the case necks split on the first firing (got some old norma brass that had no problem) and had bullets not penetrating on small game (blesbuck and warthog). Bullets disintegrated on impact and did not penetrate, almost like a varmint bullet.

I know plenty of guys who had great results with these and excellent accuracy to ad to that, but because of my experience with them I cannot recommend them for hunting.

Pieter: I've not experienced that, but neither have I shot the 8x57 loads. I wonder if anyone else has had the same experience. Have you tried any other calibers?

RevMike, I have only used them in one other cal, but only on paper to use the brass for reloading (6.5�57). One other bad report I got was from our neighbor that hunts commercially for a company. He used them in his 6.5�55 as noghing else was available (he does not reload as the company gives him a budget to buy ammo with and he sees reloading as a waste of time .He was very dissapointed with the performance on game and said he will never use them again.
