Despite loading up a ton of "modern" ammo, all my hunting of game with the 8x57 was done with Remington 170 gr factory loads. It was very accurate and ranges under 200 yds. S&B ammo is very accurate and packs a good deal more punch. While I haven;t tried the PPU 8x57 I have tried it in other Euro cartridges like the 9,3x62 and found it to be a stellar performer despite the discount pricing.
