9.3x62mm ammo sale!

7x57mm9.3x62mm ammo sale!
I call it a sale, but Graf&Sons calls it a rock bottom price with no further discounts. It is Prvi Partizan ammo loaded with 285 gr Prvi Partizan soft-point bullets and the company's brass. Graf has it going for $15.99 a box. I just thought I'd let you all, who do not reload, think about it. I bought my brother five boxes of the stuff. He does not reload at all and has the habit of driving to his local gunshop to buy the stuff at $47 for a box of 20 and then bitch about the high cost of ammunition. I do knot know much about the integrity of the bullet, but Graf's might. The company has a 1-800 number and I'd put it here, but that may constitute advertising and I do not want to ruffle any feathers. I have no connection at all with Graf's other than I occasionally order stuff from them. Tom Purdom

J ScottThanks!

7x57mmYou are welcome. I looked on the wensite and found out the load has a muzzle velocity of 2,264 fps, muzzle energy of 3,245 and this is out of a 24 inch barrel. I bought five boxes for my brother who just got a CZ 550 American in 9.3x62mm. Anyway, it seems like a heck of a deal to me. Tom Purdom

TC1Is this stuff any good? I went to their site and they offer an additional $20 off if you buy a case and the Shipping is only $3.75 for a full case! Sounds awful tempting. All I plan on using mine for is whitetail's. If shoot's true I'm sure it would work for me.

.366torqueI understand the ammo is good but not for reloading.

7x57mm.366TORQUE - The Privi Partizan cases are the same ones that Graf sells as s one of its bulk case products. I posted on another forum a while back asking about the cases because I thought I might get some in 7x57mm. I didn't get too many responses, but the ones I did get had nothing but good to say about the cases. I don't know for a fact that the cases will compare favorablly to something like Remington cases, but I was told that they do. Also, TC1, that $15.99 price means there are no further discounts according to the Graf Site. The price does, however, include shipping charges, but there is a $3.75 charge for handling each order. For example, I ordered five boxes for my brother and the amount was $79.95 for the five boxes of ammo plus $3.75 for the handling charge, or a total of $83.60. Willie, the fellow I ordered the ammo from at Graf&Sons, and someone that I knew from the days I used to live in Mexico, Mo., said Graf&Sons is able to offer such a low price because it got one heck of a good deal from Prvi Partizan. I did some internet scouting. I know that premium bullets demand a more premium prices, but A-Square offers a 285 grain bullet in its cartridge line for about $75 a box. Nosler has custom ammo, one using the 286 grain partition for around $60 a box, if memory serves me right and my brother buys that S&B ammo (I put it that way because I forgot how to spell it) at some shop in El Paso, Texas, for $37 a box, plus taxes. Hope this helps ... Tom Purdom

TC1Hey Tom, Thanks for the reply, but the volume discount does apply! I went ahead and ordered a case last night and they took an additional $20 off! I got up this morning and logged on to my CC site and there is a temporary charge for $383 from Graf&Son which would reflect the discount. I'll be saving the brass but, with 500rnds of ammo it's gonna be a long time before I do any reloading if this stuff shots good

7x57mmTC1, I stand corrected. That makes it even a better deal. I was going off that little statement on the website saying no further discounts. I hope my brother gets the idea and starts buying his ammo from them as well, if the ammo shoots okay in his rifle. Have a good day. Tom Purdom

MLGI bought some of this ammo 10 days ago here downunder and it groups consistently about 1.5" at 100metres in my Tikka T3. A friend of mine did better ith a M98 with a clover leaf group! Don,t think you will have any problem with them on Whitetails or any softskinned animal.

RiodotI just got some of this ammo last week and tried it out - I found it to have very good accuracy.
I was able to ring the 300 yd 18" gong at my range with open sights.
It gave me about 1.5 " groups at 100 - good enuff for hunting deer.
This ammo is a great find!!!!
