Privi Partizan

I am consiering buying some 223 from AMMOMAN made by Privi Partizan. With the exception of this thread I cannot find any other mention of this brand. Anyone used this stuff?

I have used it in both 5.56 and 7.62 and never had a single problem with it.

The Privi .223 I used left red primer sealant inside and all over my BCG and chamber. Fired 80 rounds, gave the rest away. This was purchased at a local shop, so YMMV. Functioned just fine nonetheless.

I've put about 1000 rounds of PP 7.62 through a DSA FN FAL without a problem. Doesn't directly answer your question, but another data point.

The price is usually right and I've never had a problem. IIRC they are/were a military arsenal; their 5.56 and 7.62 meets NATO specs.

There 5.56 and 7.62 match is good stuff. Not as good as Lapua or Handloads but more accurate than the normal crap you can buy online. I use it for practice at 200 and 300.

How are they compared to those 77gr MK262MOD1 ?
Shouldn't have squandered those gems at 100 yards while the shooting team still got supply from AMU I started to see performance drop at 600 yards, but that's probably just my sucky wind dope...

I agree with TR.

Privi match is not as consistent or hot as MK262M1. I have shot a lot of MK262 at 300 and 600 and have pushed it out to 800. I wouldnt count on the Privi past 300. MK262's advantage is weight and speed, it allows for good wind calls. My handloads are a bit more consistent but that is to be expected.

Privi is good practice ammo. Its also good for some one that doesnt want to pay a dollar plus a round to Black Hills for MK262 and doesnt have the skills to Hand load.
