It seems to work well out of my K98 8mm Mauser,,,
I'm not shooting 1" groups with iron sights,,,
But I'm keeping them all in a 4" circle.

Shoots good from my No4Mk1. And as mentioned previously, the brass is reloadable.

I picked up several boxes of PVRI for my 7MM-08. Was about $18 a box. really wasn't looking for how well it shot. Was looking for inexpensive brass to reload.

I also got some boxes of Federal.

The PVRI showed way less need for trimming than the Federal.

I use it in my 7mm 08 and 243 for hogs... its not match quality bit groups well enough and its under $20 a box.
With both calibers on different guns the bolt is harder to close than with Remington or other "name brand" ammo. No Biggie. I head shoot hogs and it puts em DRT.

OTOH, I've come to really like the Academy Monarch (actually Privi Partisan) brass case 9mm ammo. Always goes bang, feeds well in all of my 9mms and the brass reloads well. Oh, and the price is right. Decent range fodder.

Haven't used their rifle stuff, only the 7.65 Browning/.32acp & 9mm pistol rounds,
makes decent range ammo

Privi ammo

Shot some 180 grn SP out of my two Argentines in 7.65x53 and averaged 3"-5" with iron sights @ 100, which is just OK in my book. But it is clean burning and the brass is great for reloading

the jackets on pistol ammo can have that problem at times. I've had jacket separation midflight with Independence and winchester ammunition. when I was being qualified with the M9, I learned how to tell the difference between shrapnel wounds caused by the jacket separation and the actual bullet holes, my target had over 60 holes in it but I only fired 48 rounds. being hit with ricochets is your own fault, move back farther.
