Decent ammo, great value. I reload, but purchase PPU or Prvi because it comes in oddball chambering and is fully re-loadable.

I shoot PPU 150 gr. SP 308W ammo in my Ruger Compact 77MKII. It groups well and I took a nice 9 point whitetail on Nov. 21 with it. The bullet expanded perfectly, and the buck went down like a rock. There were two reasons I chose the ammo, #1 it shot a sub 1" group out of my 16 1/2" barrel, and #2 the price allows me to practice a lot more without pinching the wallet.

I like the brass. Never had any issues with the ammo.

I got a question, what is partially reloadable? If there is a fully there there has to be a partally reloadable... Lol
