PPu ammo

[john robbo 30]

Well I've been a fan of both 6.5 x55 loads i have tried (139+156sp's) in 3 rifles usually grouping under an inch at 100m's.

Tried some 55 gr/sp's in the 22 250 and what can i say 1/4 inch group and have shot it out to 400yards.

Excellent stuff and I got it at a tenner a box. Rang my supplier up and put another 100 away.

I used to use it in .303 and had no complaints

Cheaper than reloading! and you could always sell the cases.

PPU ok most time, sometime is bad batch & head slight damage, & no group, up ,down is all over like from auto. Most time -40/50mm groups @ 150mtr, is good for hunt. Is very good brass for reload. I reload some x10

I use the stuff in

 

55g SP .223

90g SP .243

150g SP .308

 

I am fortunate they all perform perfectly well enough in all my rifles for field work, some are not so lucky, a pal with a Rem 700 .308 gets 3-4 inches where as EXACTLY the same batch and box groups 1" in my Rem 700 .308 SPS without a lot of trouble.

 

There is better ammo out there for sure (at a price) but it's still down to what your barrel can deal with, all my rifles like this stuff and I'm happy enough with it!

 

Seems more than a bit short on supply for the last few months though, with delivery dates forever slipping

They had an expolosion in the factory and it halted production.

Kranks had a shipment recently so ask your dealer they are in stock now.

All powders/bullets have their own characteristics, some are dirtier than others.

 

I notice a little more muck in the moderator with PRVI than some ammo, but mine are all Predator 8's, which get a clean each outing, as does the rifle, so it just isn't an issue.

 

Define dirty?????????, I have known better and I have known worse, it's not a particularly dirty round in my opinion.

 

ATB!

I have E-mailed Kranks for a local supplier and they gave me Edinburgh shooting supplies .

I go into edinburgh fairly often so it would be handy to find this company ,but ive googled it and saked a load of guys in that area and nobody has any idea where they are .

Anybody got any idea about Edinburgh shooting supplies or even a PPu supplier in Scotland.

Cheers all Hoolit
