Privi Partizan

[Gumbo]

Anyone ever shot this stuff? It says its M193, but I'm skeptical about the quality since its manufactured in Serbia.

I've burned through ~1000rds of the M193, and 500rds of the M855 with zero problems. I personally couldn't tell a difference between it and Federal XM193, other than the $100 I saved per case.

Very good ammo.

its definitely good to go, when I had a mas 49/56 thats the most economical that was made for it. shoots fine

No worres about the "quality" of the PPI ammo. I have shot quite a lot of it in both pistol and rifle calibers. However, in several of the hunting rifle calibers I have shot, the velocities have definitely been on the slow side.

Its pretty good stuff. I think someone on AR-15.com or box of truth did detailed testing of the Privi andound that it met all of the specs and requirements of M193.

PP makes the brass cased ammo sold at Academy under the Monarch name. I've shot quite a bit of it and had zero problems.

I've run some of the 69g match though my AR, and it was as good as Federal match.

+1 no problems

It's generally GTG stuff, although several report it to be a bit on the "weak and dirty" side. IIRC, the 55 grain pills were boat tailed, but with no cannelure.

If you're super unlucky, it's possible to run into tolerance stacking issues. Specifically, a chamber that's on the tight side of spec and this ammo, which is on the "big side", and you could get some feeding or even pressure issues.

The M855 gave lots of people problems around 2007-08, but I'm not sure if that's been corrected or not. It'd be wise to get a couple hundred to test before you went crazy on several cases, just to be sure.

PPU M193 does not fragment as readily as Federal M193. It is a consistent, accurate, clean, reliable ammunition, though. Shoot with confidence.
