Does anyone have experience using this companies ammo? If so, was it accurate? Is it available in the US? If so, who has it for sale?

Any info that anyone has will be great!

Thanks in advance!

I haven't shot any of their ammo as yet, but have used some of their brass that I obtained through an associate at Hornady. Due to their association with people I respect there, I would expect good quality. The former Eastern Bloc Countries can produce good ammo, in my experience. I have found S&B quite accurate in 8x57, and Barnaul in 7.62x39.

What caliber and rifle are you shooting?

I shoot a Yugo Mauser 48 in 8mm Mauser. I use Norma ammo for hunting deer, and I use surplus stuff for practice. I don't handload so I like to try as many different loads as possible to find the most accurate for my rifle. I looked at the prvi partizan web site and they have many different loads available for the 8mm Mauser. Would love to try their ammo to see how good it is.

Surprisingly the most accurate "surplus" 30.06 ammo that I have found to cycle through several 1903 Springfield's is the Danish Ball ammo. In 8x57 the S&B has been very accurate and reliable, though i have heard other opinions.

The Old Military Calibers ammunition sold by Graff's that comes from Hornady as I understand is Privi Partisan and seems to have a good reputation so far.

With any old rifles, condition and specs can vary a lot, which may account for the sometimes widely differing opinions.

Good Luck!

I checked out Chestnut Ridge, and they only have Winchester, Olympic, and some surplus stuff in 8mm. I wrote them an email about the Prvi Partizan ammo in 8mm and have heard nothing back as of yet. I will continue my search.

I also checked out Grafs and they also did not have what I was looking for.

I may have missed something on both websites, if so, if anyone knows where, post a link for me to follow.

Thanks for all the info.

The old Hanson Ammo that was available before the fall of the East Block countries, was made by the same company. They also made ammo for Century Arms. There 303 Brittish loads was only fair. the 6.5X55 was a little better. The brass old and new seemed all top quality if thats all your after....Geo
